LEVELS OF FAITH. The are 3 levels of faith in Islam, the least one is ISLAM, then IMAN and highest one is IHSAN. The ISLAM is more of physical practice but the rest needs internal piety, Each muslims has his/her level of faith those who are able to rich the second rank which is IMAN are the (muminin) and those who are in the third level which is ISLAM are (muslims) but those at the highest level which is IHSAN rank than the muminun. Omar, may ALLAH be pleased with him said one day as they were sitting with the prophet, a man appeared whose dress was white with black hair, they did not know the man, and the man too does not look like someone from a far journey, the man sat closer to Mohammed and said, o Mohammad tell me, what is ISLAM? then the prophet said Islam is (1) accepting that there is nothing worthy to be worship except ALLAH and Mohammad is a servant of ALLAH and a massenger, (2) performing five times sallat, (3) fast in the month of Ramadan, (4)pay Zakat and (5) going to Hajj if one qualifies. then the man said you have spoken rightly. then the man said tell me what is IMAN? THEN THE PROPHET SAID , iman is to believe in (1) ALLAH, (2)His angels, (3) His books, (4) His massengers, (5) judgement day and (6) divine destiny. then the man said then tell me about IHSAN, then the prophet Mohammad (pbuh) said Ihsan is like worshiping ALLAH as if ALLAH is looking at you, while you dont see him but truly HE sees you. then the man ask when is last day? then the prophet said the questioner knows better than the one being questioned, then he asked the what are the signs of the last day, then the prophet said a slave will give birth for her mistress, people will be competing to build massions, people become destitude, and naked, then After the man had gone the prophet told them the man was angel Gabriel who came to teach them about their religion. may ALLAH increase our faith to the highest level faith, Ameeen.
