WHAT IS SHIRK? Shirk is the one unforgivable sin in Islam, if one dies in this state. Associating a partner or others with Allah is a rejection of Islam and takes one outside of the faith. The most fundamental article of faith in Islam is belief in strict monotheism (tawhid). The opposite of tawhid is known as shirk, or associating partners with Allah. This is often translated as polytheism. The word širk comes from the Arabic root Š-R-K (ش ر ك), with the general meaning of "to share". In the context of the Quran, the particular sense of "sharing as an equal partner" is usually understood, so that polytheism means "attributing a partner to Allah". In the Quran, shirk and the related word mušrikūn (مشركون)—those who commit shirk and plot against Islam. Shirk (Arabic: شرك širk) in Islam is the sin of idolatry or polytheism (i.e., the deification or worship of anyone or anything besides Allah). Islam teaches that God does not share His divine attributes with any partner. #shirk #unforgivable #sins #akhirah #quran #dua #makedua #pray #islam #muslim #allah #islamicvideos #islamicvideo #sunnah #islamic #dakwah #allahuakbar #deen #love #namaz #prophetmuhammad #alhamdulillah #jannah #islamicreminders #islamicpost #instadaily #instagram #reelsinstagram #motivation
