Islam means realism. I say this after deep reflection. Everything is encompassed in this statement, be it faith or anything else. This statement includes everything: your political policy, national policy and daily behaviour.
Iman billah, faith in God, is acceptance of reality. It is neither a ritual nor lip service. The greatest thing a person does on this planet is that in spite of freedom he says: God, I acknowledge You. This is also worship. You place your forehead on the ground and say, Praise be to God the Exalted. This is also acceptance of reality. You put an end to your arrogance and ego, and place your forehead on the ground and say, Praise be to God the Exalted. This is also acceptance of reality. This is the reality of Islam. Islam means realism. I say this after deep reflection. Everything is encompassed in this statement, be it faith or anything else. This statement includes everything: your political policy, national policy and daily behaviour.
