If a person doesn&#39;t have these, then he goes out of Islam. Also, doing sinful acts and complaining about bad times, like &#39;why is this happening to me?&#39; or &#39;my situation is not going to change&#39; etc &#8211; being like this doesn&#39;t mean a person doesn&#39;t have all of the above qualities. Instead, it is just sinful and impatient behavior.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\">Similarly, when a person sins, it is said that it reduces the fear of Allah Ta&#39;ala but it doesn&#39;t mean that a person is out of the fold of Islam. Therefore, if a person complains of bad times, it doesn&#39;t mean that a person doesn&#39;t have a good opinion of Allah (naudhu billah) but rather this is impatient behavior and a sinful act. I am finding it a bit hard to explain what I am trying to say. I hope you understand what I am asking. To be honest, I am having lots of wasaawis that&#39;s why I thought to ask.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\">Also in regards to disappointment, if a person gets sad and disappointed over something and complain to people that things are not getting better or will not be better etc. or even complains to Allah Ta&#39;ala for that matter, then that disappointment doesn&#39;t mean that he is out of Islam but is sinful. Deep down, Muslims do know that Allah Ta&#39;ala can do everything and it is in the hands of Allah Ta&#39;ala but due to being impatient or angry etc. they say these sinful things.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\">Is my above understanding correct?<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\" dir=\"RTL\">\n\t<strong><span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><u>\u0628\u0633\u0645 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u0627\u0644\u0631\u062d\u0645\u0646 \u0627\u0644\u0631\u062d\u064a\u0645<\/u><\/span><\/span><\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n\t<span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><b><u>In The Name Of Allah, The Most Gracious, The Most Merciful<\/u><\/b><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n\t<span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><b><u>&nbsp;<\/u><\/b><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><b><u>Answer:<\/u><\/b><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\">Imam At-Tahawi states in his Adeeqah At-Tahawiyyah that:<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n\t<span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><i>&nbsp;<\/i><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n\t<span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><i>&ldquo;A servant is not considered to have left his faith except by denying that which originally caused him to enter into it,&rdquo; <\/i>(Article 96)<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\">Therefore, to come out of the fold of Islam would require a person to disbelieve in those things which made him a Muslim in the first place i.e. Allah&rsquo;s oneness and attributes, His Shariah, angels, books, messengers, Day of Judgment, or the resurrection.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\">The things which you mention are not pillars of our Iman and therefore being deficient in these will not take you out of the fold of Islam.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\">As humans, we have been created as having weaknesses and deficiencies.
