Freedom in Islam?
#3

Bismillah:




Quote:This would mean there is no such thing as freedom in Islam, or am I wrong?

there are many types of freedom Deen, but in Islam Allah has given to mankind freedom of thought, freedom of speech, and freedom of action but within a correct and reasonable framework, (i.e. whereby one does not harm others or oneself), so that certain foods and drinks, which are very harmful, are not permissible because of the harm they cause to oneself. Likewise slander and assault and the like are not permissible because of the harm they cause to others. In the same way, the overuse of natural resources is not allowed because it causes harm to forthcoming generations. so freedom should no be misunderstood.


the hadith simple means that the world is a prison to the believer in <b>comparison to the great rewards he will earn in the eternal hereafter</b>. Similarly, the world is a paradise to a disbeliever in <b>comparison to the eternal punishment of the hereafter</b>.


hope this clarify insha'Allah.


Salam


Wael.
