Author(s) Rasheeda Bibi

Abstract It is affirmed that Kufr and Ilhaad are the biggest sins in Islam, a monotheistic religion. The concept of Kufr, which equates to Infidelity or Negativism, is used in the Quran with the sense of being ungrateful towards Allah Almighty. Similarly, the concept of Ilhaad equates to the terms Apostasy or Atheism and is used in the Quran in the sense of comparing Allah to anything or denying any of Allah’s attributes or qualities. Islam has prohibited its followers from Kufr and Ilhaad. Furthermore, many types of Kufr and Ilhaad and their manifestations in various forms have been elaborated in the Quran, Hadees, and jurisprudence. Likewise, the causes of Kufr and Ilhaad are categorized in this dissertation. Notwithstanding, prevention from Kufr and Ilhaad has been formulated in the guidance of Quranic verses. This study is qualitative research based on past literature and conducted through a literature review. Kufr and Ilhaad are pandemics nowadays, and even Muslims are the victims of it due to their lack of analytical studies on the said topic. An analysis of the past literature substantiated by reliable references from different Islamic resources and different Tafasirs of the Quran-e-Majeed has been carried out to filter the true meaning of Kufr and Ilhaad and to highlight all the causes of Kufr and Ilhaad that exist in its various manifestations in today’s world. Conclusively, skepticism towards the attributes of Almighty Allah, rejecting Islamic beliefs such as resurrection, doomsday, etc., and interpreting Quranic verses as per pertinent wishes are the manifestations of Kufr and Ilhaad. Moreover, renouncing and denouncing the orders of Allah and tampering with the meanings of Quranic verses are various forms of Kufr and Ilhaad. Thus, various dimensions and remedies to tackle Kufr and Ilhaad are discussed in this study. The outcomes of the dissertation are making people aware of the various forms of Kufr and Ilhaad and saving them from their adverse impacts. This study recommends further analysis of the relevant terms of Kufr and Ilhaad and the causes of the said disease. All the manifestations of Kufr and Ilhaad should be framed so that people could be well aware of the sins. In a nutshell, this topic should be part of the curriculum of Islamic studies taught at all degree levels in the country.
