accepts it or rejects it. But after accepting Islam, he does not have the option to start
testing the rules and instructions of the religion because of his intellect and accept

and let go of those who he dislikes, or which are hard on his nature - Apostasy from the
religion is tantamount to rebellion against the entire Ummah.(Taseer ul Quran)

way. Sharia and its systems protect us from going astray.

of generosity and not injuring the feeling of recipient.

by insult or injury.

 What is Riba (interest)? Difference between interest and trade.
 The people who think interest & trade are same are called bewitched and
maddened by Satan’s touch.
 Why is there so hard admonition for interest? Declaration of war by Allah and His
messenger for those who did not give up interest-bearing transactions.

 Interest breeds meanness, selfishness, apathy & cruelty towards others. It leads to
the worship of money and destroys fellow-feeling and a spirit of altruistic co-operation.
Thus, it is ruinous for mankind from both an economic and a moral viewpoint.
 Allah deprives interest of all blessing and develops charity. Interest serves as a strain
on moral and spiritual well-being, and social and economic growth, it also causes
actual regression and decline. Charity leads to the growth and expansion of man's
moral and spiritual qualities and to the growth of human society and economy.
