    Īmān, Islām, taqwā, kufr, shirk, and nifāq: Definitions, examples and impacts on human life
    (CRP, International Islamic University Chittagong, Bangladesh, 2017-12) Hassan, Md. Mahmudul
    The Holy Qur‟an encompasses the comprehensive code for mankind to live a rewarding life in this world, to rescue from the Jahannam and to enter the Jannah in the Hereafter. Īmān, Islām, taqwā, kufr, shirk, and nifāq are, the six significant terms, used in the Noble Qur‟an frequently. All of them represent the characteristics of human beings. The possessors of these characters will go to their eternal destination; the Jannah or Jahannam. The Jannah is the aftermath of īmān, Islam and taqwā. On the other hand, kufr, shirk, and nifāq lead to the Jahannam. This study intends to present the definitions and examples of these six terms according to the Qur‟anic statement, and then shed light on the impact of each character on human life quoting the evidence from the Holy Qur‟an and the Traditions of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). The possessors of these six remarkable terms are entitled successively as mu'min, muslim, muttaqī to be rewarded Jannah and kafīr, mushrik, and munāfiq to be punished in Jahannam

    Islamic literature: definition, nature and scope
    (CRP, International Islamic University Chittagong, Bangladesh, 2016-12) Hassan, Md. Mahmudul
    Literature is a pellucid mirror that reflects the reality of life, society and the universe. It emanates from ideas, emotions, and beliefs of individual or collective personality irrespective of national, linguistic, cultural, religious and stylistic differences. Islamic literature deals with the features of all aspects of Islam. It is not confined in person, group or nation as well as place or time, but represents a clear appeal for the whole humanity forever. The paper aims at studying the definition of Islamic literature and then sheds light on identifying the nature and scope of this literature.
