Islam is Easy not Difficult

Islam is a complete code of life. Allah has created us and He loves us more. There for He has
chosen a best religion for us which completely suits with human nature. Islam is a religion that
neither goes to extremity nor goes to leniency. Islam provides the middle path between extremity
and leniency. From the start of Islam till the Day of Judgment no matter, no place is left on
which the teaching of Islam is not existed. During following these teaching the hardship which a
man feels, the solution is also given in Islam. No Muslim can say that he cannot follow the
teaching of Islam. The person who tells reason that because of this, because of that he is not
following the teaching he makes lie. Islam is easy not difficult. This thing is very clear that in
Quran and Hadith, nowhere it is said that these teachings are for the all Muslims. The teachings
which all the Muslims cannot follow they are not for all the Muslims.

The building of Islam is standing on 5 pillars. The very first pillar is Kalma E Tayba. To say
Kama E Tayba by tongue is important in order to enter in the circle of Islam. But it is not
enough to say kalma E Tayba by tongue. Practical is important. When we say in Kalma E Tayba
that Allah is one then practically we have to do that objects which shows that we are the strong
believer of Allah and His prophet.
The second important pillar of Islam is Namaz. It is compulsory for every Muslim man,
woman to offer the prayer. Every man can offer prayer. There is no need to spend money in
order to offer the prayer. There is a big reward to offer the prayer in mosque. Now it is not
compulsory that every Muslim have to be spending to make mosque. It is not Islam that if a
Muslim cannot go in mosque he will be punished. He can offer namaz at home. If he cannot
stand in Namaz he can sit. If someone even cannot sit because of illness he can offer by laying. If
someone cant offer the whole Namaz because of some reason like travel he can offer only Farz
Namaz.

After namaz the 3
rd
important pillar of Islam is Zakat. It is not important for whole Muslims to
pay Zakat. And the amount of Zakat is not so much high that a person cannot pay it. The fourth
pillar of Islam is Roza(fasting). It is not in Islam that every Muslim should have fast whether he
is ill or healthy. One can leave fast because of any serious reason and to have it when he will
become healthy. The fifth important pillar of Islam is Hajj. Hajj can be offered at only one place.
Every Muslim cannot reach on that place that is why Hajj is not compulsory for every Muslim.

Islam is not limited only on the pillars of Islam. We can make our daily routine according to
the teaching of Islam. For this we dont have need to do extra hard work or to spend extra time.
Water is the need of every man. Muslims should drink water by sitting. This action will not take
extra time or hardship. This action will be included in good deeds. Every human being eats. If a
Muslim will eat according to the teaching of Islam it will be included in good deeds. Every
Muslim wears clothes if the Muslim will wear the cloth according to Sunnah his action of
wearing cloth will be included in good deeds. Every human being sleeps if he will be sleep
according to Sunnah this will be included in good deeds. If a person walks according to sunnah it
will be good deed. If Muslims will cut the hairs and nail according to sunnah and these actions
will be included in good deeds. If the Muslims will perform every actions according to sunnah
these actions will be included in good deeds.

So Islam is easy not difficult. Now if someone says that Islamic teachings are old he is in the
depth of darkness. In Islam there is solution of every problem. If someone cannot find the
solution he should consult with scholars. In Islam no change has come and no change will come.
It is the religion which gives gaudiness about every matter of life. So Islam is not difficult. We
have made it difficult. In every little action there is reward in Islam if it is performed according
to Sunnah. May Allah give us the strength to live the life according to the teaching of Islam.
