The Bigger Sin According to Islam

Here is a Discussion on the "Sin in Islam" between Muslims and Non Muslims. a Hindu has raised a question and answer is given by Muslims.



Anand
Just watched a YouTube video in one of the threads here.. where Dr. Zakir Naik mentions that sins like raping, dacoit, killing are lesser as compared to someone worshiping God using idol or lets say someone who is a peaceful polytheist. Height of some logical crap here!!

Do you guys agree to this?


Farhan
what is the definition of Sin you are using here.
as it depends upon what definition you use for it.
.
some ppl say Sin = an act, that harms human beings.


Munaf
being peaceful and denying your own God do not prove that you are at a good man. Imagine, If a person deny or reject someone who help him in his whole life and give all the things which he need or require in life and even given him more than what he want and yet will you consider such rejecter as a peaceful person?
.
God gave us the intelligence to use and imagine even after given such a precious gift (intelligence) and yet man worships who had no life so leave aside intelligence. Don’t you think that worshiping idols is an insult to our intelligence which is used to worship who has no life and intelligence (idols) and an insult to God?


Farhan
Let us first define what sin is:
An immoral act considered to be a transgression against divine law
An act regarded as a serious or regrettable fault, offense, or omission
above are dictionary definitions of Sin.
do u agree to these definitions?

Hope you are doing well...

Does your God be pleased if you worship some one else?

Does your God become happy if you lead a life which is against His will?

Yes or No.


Farhan
When a person starts to Argue about some Ideology, he should have its BASIC understanding first.
he does not have understanding,,and then he starts to compare it with his standards, and start giving Useless conclusions, that is called stupidity (which most ppl commit here casually)
.
Now as Nice Anand does not know yet, the reason that why shirk is biggest sin, then why give conclusions? (height of crap etc??)
.
even you are doing same mistake.
you are not aware of this reason, but you are ready to give conclusions,,based on????
No Knowledge

its my request that please learn, and then speak (Always)
there will be hundreds of Mis-understandings, and fights, which will be resolved by following this simple rule.

Another reason, based on Aamir brother's reason.
.
Suppose you are a father. you have 3 boys.
You try your best to teach them the BEST way of life.
but when they grow up, they start to demand Ultimate freedom. as rest of world around them is cruel, evil. everywhere there is crime, and wrong acts.
.
Even one of them says You are not my father, as i have not seen the DNA Report , or due to some other reasons, i do not accept you
.
2 boys do the same.
you try your best and say to them
Please don't do that, i am your father, if you follow my guidance, you will be happy. otherwise world is cruel. you will face many problems.

What happens then?
there of guys indulge in ULTIMATE Freedom.
they totally deny you, and all of them indulge in worldly pleasures.
in the end, they have no relation with their father, and they all indulge in crimes, and other wrong activities.
one of them dies in high speed car racing.
one dies being burned in fire by his enemies, and other also dies the same way.
.
it was just YOU, who,,could save them , by following your guidance, and tell them what is right and wrong..
.
would u LOVE THEM,,and be Extremely happy? that all your sons abandoned you, died brutally, and live worst life? they died in their young age ,,and in worst way?

If this happens where the shariah is being practised then as per my knowledge the rapist has to be put to death whether he rapes a Hindu or a christian or a Muslim.

However the same cannot be done to the guy worshiping idols. His account is with his Lord.

Now till here both are sinners.

If the person who raped asks Allah for forgiveness, it between him and his Lord. But the punishment has to be given.


Aamir
In my opinion, both are sins and both deserve punishments. In question of which is bigger then, it has to shirk(Associating partners with Allah)

I ll explain why later, now your basis upon which you answered??


Farhan
not all answers have SIMPLEST or PLAIN Answer. (i know u don't believe this)
.
i don't think you are here to KNOW answer.
bcoz if u were, you would simply answer to questions we are asking u (which will give u answer completely)

this question is not like you have asked "What is name of God in Islam"
Answer: Allah.
..
you have asked MUSLIMS about the answer,,then you should have patience to LISTEN to the answer as well.
.
Expecting one line answer of such questions does not make any sense.
.
ad it is WE WHO KNOW Answer.
how do u assumed that this question has one line PLAIN question?
.
Also i raised a point that you run towards conclusion, without knowing anything about specific concept of islam.
do u agree?

Farhan
and the question about Sin was not a counter question, but i was trying to understand that what definition do u have in mind of sin.
bcoz if base is wrong, then whatever lies on it, is also wrong.
.
anyways, you are free to ignore any question.

Having a muslim name is not the criteria to become a muslim in the eyes of Allah... A rapist cannot be a muslim...

Amatullah
Brother if he has raped and not repented and is following his whims and fancies and does not follow Allah's commands then Allah will judge his punishment. How can I say that?

Perhaps he is a hypocrite for all we know and the punishment for hypocrites is even worse than the punishment for denying Allah.

However if he repents or if even a person who worships idols repents truly then Allah forgives

However, Allah has said that there is ONE SIN he will NOT forgive which is SHIRK.

Now brother if someone has committed a rape --- Allah may or may not forgive.

But rape is definitely a horrible crime. That does not make it less. The point is that ultimately Allah is the judge but we know for sure that shirk is unforgiven.


This does not mean that some xyz says I'm a muslim and blows up people. If he truly was a Muslim then the question is would he have done such a thing? So then the question that follows is "is he a hypocrite".

Now brother since we are humans and are not given such in depth knowledge let Allah decide.

We know one thing for sure that shirk is not going to be forgiven.


Farhan
Simplest answer to your question can be this:

there is a Guru, who knows 1001 ways to live best life. and if anyone does not learns them, then that person would hurt other human beings UN-intentionally by many ways.
so when a person rejects guru, he also rejects anything related to that guru (1001 way to live ideal life)
.
when a person rapes, he is only harming one human being.
when a person Rejects Allah, that means he is rejecting whatever is associated with Allah or, anything Said by Allah.
and the Best guidance in this world, is by Allah(islam). no other guidance (religion) is comparable to islam.
So by rejecting One-ness of Allah, or associating partners with him, you are actually considering someone EQUAL to God (which , according to common sense is an Insult of the Allah Almighty)
.
how can anyone insult Allah almighty? who is Lord of the worlds?
.
and also, you are rejecting Quran/hadith (Every single teachings of Islam), which is the only way to bring peace in world.
.

so conclusion is, if you reject Allah, or associate partners with Allah, you are potentially harming millions of human being.
and with the way you live your life, you are taking part in spreading Evil everywhere (directly , as well as indirectly).
