And those who, when they commit an immorality or wrong themselves (By sinning), remember Allah and seek forgiveness for their sins - And who can forgive sins except Allah?

A'udhu Bika min sharri maa ssana't, aboo-u Laka bi-ni'matika 'alayy, wa aboo-u bidhanbi, faghfirlee fa Innahu laa yaghfir adh-dhunooba illaa Anta.' (Meaning: O' Allah, You are my Rabb! None has the right to be worshipped but You. You Allah created me and I am Your servant, and I am faithful to my covenant and my promise to You as much as I can, I seek refuge with You from all the evil I have done. I acknowledge before You Allah all the blessings which You have bestowed on me, and I confess to You all my sins, so I beseech You to forgive my sins, for no one can forgive sins except You.) The Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam added, "If anybody recites it during the day with firm faith in it, and dies on the same day before the evening, he will be from the inhabitants of Paradise; and if anybody recites it at night with firm faith in it, and dies before the morning, he will be from the inhabitants of Paradise."

And in the Hereafter is severe penalty and forgiveness from Allah Almighty, and approval. And what is the worldly life except the enjoyment of delusion." [Qur'an 57:20]

[Sahih Bukhari Hadith 8]

28. First Pillar Of Islam: Shahaada
Allah the Almighty said: "Allah witnesses that there is no true god worthy of worship except Him, and so do the Angels and those who have knowledge - that He Allah is maintaining creation in justice. There is no god worthy of worship but Him, the Exalted in Might, the Wise. Verily, the true religion in the sight of Allah is Islam. And those who were given the Scripture did not differ except after knowledge had come to them - out of jealous animosity between themselves. And whoever disbelieves in Allah's Verses then indeed Allah is Swift in account." [Qur'an 3:18-19]

29. Second Pillar Of Islam: Salah
Allah the Almighty said: "So exalt Allah with praise of your Rabb and be of those who bow down to Him in worship. And worship your Rabb Allah until there comes to you the certainty (The return to Allah Almighty)." [Qur'an 15:98-99]

30. Third Pillar Of Islam: Zakah
Allah the Almighty said: "Righteousness is not that you turn your faces towards the east or the west, but true righteousness is in one who believes in Allah, the Last Day (Judgement Day), the Angels, the Book, and the Prophets, and gives wealth in spite of his love for it to relatives, orphans, the needy, the traveler, those who ask for help, and for freeing those in captivity, and who establishes prayer and gives charity/Zakah, those who fulfill their promise when they make a promise, and those who are patient during difficult times and in hardship. Those are the ones who have been true, and it is those who are truly the righteous." [Qur'an 2:177]

31. Fourth Pillar Of Islam: Fasting In Ramadan
Allah the Almighty said: "O' you who have believed, decreed upon you is fasting as it was decreed on those before you, so that you may become righteous. (Fasting for) A specified number of days. So whoever among you is unwell or on a journey - then fast an equal number of days (To make up for the missed fasts). And on those who are able (To fast but with some difficulty) - a ransom (As substitute) of feeding a needy person each day. And whoever volunteers good (Or does more) then it is better for him. But to fast is best for you, if only you knew. The noble month of Ramadan is that in which was revealed the Glorious Qur'an, a guidance for the people and clear proofs of guidance and criterion. So whoever sights the month, let him fast it, and whoever is unwell or on a journey - then an equal number of other days. Allah wants for you ease and does not intend for you hardship, and wants you to complete the period, and to glorify Allah for that which He has guided you, and perhaps you will be grateful." [Qur'an 2:183-185]

32. Fifth Pillar Of Islam: Hajj
Allah the Almighty said: "Say, 'Allah has told the truth. So follow the religion of Prophet Abraham (May Peace be upon him), inclining towards Truth; and verily he was not of the polytheists.' Indeed, the first House of Worship established for mankind was that at Bakkah (Makkah) - blessed, and a guidance for the worlds. In it are clear signs such as the standing place of Prophet Abraham (May Peace be upon him). And whoever enters it shall be safe. And due to Allah from the people is a pilgrimage to the House - for whoever is able to find thereto a way. But whoever disbelieves - then verily, Allah is free from need of the worlds." [Qur'an 3:95-97]

33. The Six Pillars Of Faith/Iman
Allah the Almighty said: "Indeed, those who believed, and those who were Jews or Christians, or Sabians (who came before the time of the Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam), those among them who sincerely believed in Allah and the Last Day, and did righteousness - will have their reward with their Rabb, and no fear will there be regarding them, nor will they grieve." [Qur'an 2:62]

34. Belief In Allah Almighty
Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) narrated: One day while the Prophet Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam was sitting out for the people, there came a man who asked, 'What is faith?' Allah's Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam replied, 'Faith is to believe in Allah, His Angels, the meeting with Him, His Messengers, and to believe in the Day of Resurrection.' Then the man asked, 'What is Islam?' Allah's Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, 'To worship Allah Alone and none else, to perform the obligatory prayers dutifully, to pay the compulsory charity/Zakah, and to observe the obligatory fasting during the month of Ramadan.' Then the man further asked, 'What is Ihsan/perfection?' Allah's Messenger SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam replied, 'Ihsan is to worship Allah as if you see Him, and if you cannot achieve this state of devotion, then you must at least believe that Allah is always watching you.' Then the man asked, 'When will the Hour/Judgment Day be established?' Allah's Messenger SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam replied, 'The one being asked about it has no better knowledge than the questioner, but I will inform you about its signs: When a female servant gives birth to her master, and when the shepherds of black camels start competing with others in the construction of high buildings. And the Hour/Judgment Day is one of the five things which nobody knows except Allah Almighty.' The Prophet Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam then recited, "Verily, Allah! With Him Alone is the knowledge of the Hour/Judgment Day." [Qur'an 31:34] Afterwards the man left and the Prophet Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam asked his companions to call him back, but they could not see anything of him. Then the Prophet Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam stated, 'That was the Angel Jibreel (May Peace be with him) who came to teach the people their religion (Islam)'. [Sahih Bukhari Hadith 47]

35. Belief In Allah's Angels
Allah the Almighty said: "All Praise is due to Allah, the Creator of the heavens and the earth, Who made the angels messengers having wings, two or three or four. He Allah increases in creation what He Wills. Indeed, Allah is over all things competent." [Qur'an 35:1]

36. Belief In Allah's Books

Indeed we were even before it Muslims (Submitting to Allah Almighty).'" [Qur'an 28:51-53]

37. Belief In Allah's Messengers
Allah the Almighty said: "Mankind was of one religion (Before their deviation); then Allah sent the prophets as bringers of good tidings, and warners, and sent down with them the Scripture in truth to judge between the people concerning that in which they differed. And none differed over it (The Scripture) except those who were given it - after the clear proofs came to them - out of jealous animosity among themselves. And Allah guided those who believed to the truth concerning that over which they had differed, by His permission. And Allah guides whom He Wills to a Straight Path." [Qur'an 2:213]

38. Belief In Judgement Day
Allah the Almighty said: "And fear a Day (Judgment Day) when you will be returned to Allah. Then every soul will be compensated for what it has earned, and they will not be wronged (Treated unjustly)." [Qur'an 2:281]

Allah the Almighty said: "No tribulation strikes on the earth or among yourselves except that it is already in a register before We bring it into being - indeed that, for Allah, is easy - in order that you do not despair over what has eluded you and not exult in pride over what He has given you. And Allah does not love that person who is self-deluded and boastful." [Qur'an 57:22-23]

40. Good Manners: Taqwa/Fear Of Allah
Allah the Almighty said: "And from wherever you go out for prayer, turn your face toward Al-Masjid Al-Haram. And wherever you believers may be, turn your faces toward it in order that the people will not have any argument against you, except for those of them who commit wrong; so fear them not but fear Me (Allah). And it is so I may complete My Favor upon you and that you may be guided. Just as We have sent among you a messenger from yourselves reciting to you Our verses and purifying you, and teaching you the Book and wisdom, and teaching you that which you did not know. So remember Me (Allah), I will remember you, and be grateful to Me and do not deny Me." [Qur'an 2:150-152]

41. Good Manners: Tawakkal/Trust In Allah
Allah the Almighty said: "The believers are only those, when Allah is mentioned, their hearts become fearful, and when His verses are recited to them, it increases them in faith, and upon their Rabb they always rely - The ones who establish prayer, and from what We have provided them, they spend. Indeed those are the true believers. For them are degrees of high position with their Rabb and forgiveness, and noble provision." [Qur'an 8:2-4]

42. Good Manners: Ar-Rajaa/Hope In Allah
Allah the Almighty said: "And of the people is he who sells himself, seeking means to the approval of Allah. And Allah is Most Kind to His servants.

43. Good Manners: Love Allah

44. Good Manners: Obedience To Allah
Allah the Almighty said: "Verily, Allah commands you to render trusts to whom they are due, and when you judge between people to judge with justice. Excellent is that which Allah instructs you. Indeed, Allah is the All-Hearing and the All-Seeing. O' you who have believed, obey Allah and obey the Messenger (Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam), and those in authority among you. And if you disagree over anything, refer it to Allah and the Messenger (Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam), if you should believe in Allah and the Last Day. That is the best way and best in result." [Qur'an 4:58-59]

45. Good Manners: Du'a/Supplication
Allah the Almighty said: "It is Allah Who made for you the earth a place of settlement and the sky a structure, and formed you, and perfected your forms, and provided you with good things.

All Praise is due to Allah, Rabb of the worlds." [Qur'an 40:64-65]

46. Good Manners: Istighfaar/Seeking Allah's Forgiveness

And when Prophet Solomon (May Peace be upon him) saw it placed before him, he said, 'This is from the favor of my Rabb to test me whether I will be grateful or ungrateful. And whoever is grateful - his gratitude is only for the benefit of himself. And whoever is ungrateful then indeed my Rabb Allah is Free of all needs and is Most Generous.'" [Qur'an 27:40]

48. Good Manners: Following The Prophet's Sunnah
Allah the Almighty said: "Those who follow the Messenger (Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam), the unlettered Prophet, whom they find mentioned in what they have of the Torah and the Gospel, who enjoins upon them what is right and forbids them what is wrong, and makes lawful for them the good things, and prohibits for them the evil deeds, and relieves them of their burden and the shackles which were upon them. So they who have believed in him, honored him, supported him, and followed the light which was sent down with him - it is those who will be the successful (In both worlds). Say (O' Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam), 'O' mankind, verily I am the Messenger of Allah to you all, from Him to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. There is god worthy of worship except Him; He Alone gives life and causes death.' So believe in Allah and His Messenger (Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam), the unlettered Prophet, who believes in Allah and His words, and follow him that you may be guided." [Qur'an 7:157-158]

Allah the Almighty said: "And not equal are the good deed and the bad deed. Repel evil by a good deed which is better; and thereupon, the one whom between you and him is enmity will become as though he was a devoted friend. But none is granted it except those who are patient, and none is granted it except one having a great portion of good (From Allah). And if there comes to you from shaytan a suggestion to do evil, then seek refuge in Allah. Indeed, He Allah is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing." [Qur'an 41:34-36]

51. Good Manners: Sincerity And Having Good Intentions

Allah the Almighty said: "And among the people of the Scripture is he who, if you entrust him with a great amount (Of wealth), he will return it to you. And among them is he who, if you entrust him with a (Small amount of money) silver coin, he will not return it to you unless you are constantly standing over him demanding for it. That is because they say, 'There is no blame upon us concerning the unlearned.' And they speak untruth about Allah while they know it. But yes, whoever fulfills his commitment and fears Allah - then indeed, Allah loves those who fear Him." [Qur'an 3:75-76]

53. Good Manners: Mercy And Kindness
'Aisha Bint Abu Bakr (May Allah be pleased with her) narrated that Allah's Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "Be calm, o' Aisha! Indeed Allah loves that one should be kind and lenient in all matters." [Sahih Bukhari Hadith 2025]

56. Good Manners: Fairness And Equality
Allah the Almighty said: "O' you who have believed, be persistently standing firm in justice, fair witnesses for Allah, even if it be against yourselves or parents and relatives. Whether one is rich or needy, Allah is more worthy of both. So follow not personal desires, lest you not be just. And if you distort your testimony or refuse to give it, then indeed Allah is Ever-Acquainted with what you do." [Qur'an 4:135]

57. Good Manners: Patience
Allah the Almighty said: "Verily, there was a party of My servants who said, 'Our Rabb Allah, we have believed, so forgive us and have mercy on us, and You Allah are the best of the merciful.' But you took them in mockery to the point that they made you forget My Remembrance, and you used to laugh at them. Indeed, I (Allah) have rewarded them this Day (Judgment Day) for their patience that they are the attainers of success." [Qur'an 23:109-111]

58. Good Manners: Humbleness
Allah the Almighty said: "Your God is One God (Allah). But those who do not believe in the Hereafter - Their hearts are in disagreement, and they are arrogant. Assuredly, Allah knows what they conceal and what they reveal. Verily, Allah does not like the arrogant." [Qur'an 16:22-23]

59. Good Manners: Respecting One's Parents
Allah the Almighty said: "And your Rabb Allah has decreed that you do not worship anyone except Him, and that you show good treatment to parents. Whether one or both of them reach old age while with you, say not to them any word of contempt such as the exclamation 'Uff!' and do not repel them, but instead speak to them with kind and noble words. And lower to them (Your parents) the wing of humility out of mercy and say, 'My Rabb Allah, have mercy on them both as they brought me up when I was young.'" [Qur'an 17:23-24]

60. Good Manners: Maintain Family Ties For Allah's Sake
Allah the Almighty said: "And give the relative his right, and also the poor, and the traveler, and do not spend your wealth wastefully. Verily, the wasteful (Or excessively spendthrift) are brothers of the devils, and ever has shaytan been to his Rabb Allah ungrateful. And if you must turn away from the needy awaiting mercy from your Rabb Allah, which you expect, then at least speak to them (Your relatives and those who ask) a gentle word." [Qur'an 17:26-28]

61. Good Manners: Goodness To Neighbors
Allah the Almighty said: "Worship Allah and associate nothing with Him, and do good to parents, and to relatives, orphans, the needy, the neighbor who is near, the neighbor who lives far away, the companion at your side, the traveler, and those under your care or whom your right hands possess. Verily, Allah does not like those who are self-deluding and boastful." [Qur'an 4:36]

62. Good Manners: Welcoming Guests

63. Good Manners: Enjoining Right And Forbidding Wrong
Allah the Almighty said: "To Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. And to Allah will all matters be returned. You (Believers) are the best nation sent (As a noble example) for mankind - you enjoin what is right and forbid what is wrong, and you believe in Allah. If only the people of the Scripture had believed, it would have been better for them. Among them are believers, but most of them are defiantly disobedient." [Qur'an 3:109-110]

64. Good Manners: Love For Allah And Hate For Allah
Allah the Almighty said: "You will not find a people who sincerely believe in Allah and the Last Day having much affection for those who openly oppose Allah and His Messenger (Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam), even if they were their fathers or their sons, or their brothers, or their kindred.
