The Six Articles of Faith
In Islam, there are six fundamental beliefs that every Muslim is expected to accept and uphold. These core beliefs form the foundation of Islamic theology and guide the practice of faith in daily life.
- Belief in Allah (God)
- Belief in Angels (Mala’ikah)
- Belief in the Holy Books (Kutub)
- Belief in the Prophets (Nabi and Rasul)
- Belief in the Day of Judgment (Yawm al-Qiyamah)
- Belief in Qadar (Divine Decree)
These six articles define the core beliefs that guide a Muslim’s faith, actions, and relationship with Allah.
Islam 101 goes beyond foundational knowledge, encouraging spiritual growth and nurturing a deeper relationship with Allah (SWT) as well as a stronger connection to the Islamic community.
