Defination of Islam


Defination of Islam: Islam is to submit to Allah with Tawheed, and surrendering one's full obedience to Allah, and leaving of shirk and innovation and their people (people of shirk and innovation). 
Proofs:
[003:019] Truly, the religion with Allâh is Islâm.
[005:003] And have chosen for you Islâm as your religion.
[039:054] "And turn in repentance and in obedience with true Faith (Islâmic Monotheism) to your Lord and submit to Him (in Islâm) before the torment comes upon you, (and) then you will not be helped.
[002.132] Then die not except in the Faith of Islâm (as Muslims – Islâmic Monotheism)."
[003:102] And die not except in a state of Islâm [as Muslims (with complete submission to Allâh)].
[003:083] Do they seek other than the religion of Allâh (the true Islâmic Monotheism worshipping none but Allâh Alone), while to Him submitted all creatures in the heavens and the earth, willingly or unwillingly. And to Him shall they all be returned.
[003:085] And whoever seeks a religion other than Islâm, it will never be accepted of him, and in the Hereafter he will be one of the losers.
[019:048] "And I (ibrahim) shall turn away from you (his father) and from those whom you invoke besides Allâh. And I shall call upon my Lord and I hope that I shall not be unblest in my invocation to my Lord." [Shaykh Sahih ibn Sad as-Shuhaymee stated this aya as proof for last part of the def. of Islam in his lecture: What is Islam? Part 1; found at salafitapes.com]
From the book: "Beneficial Speech in establishing the evidences of Tawheed"
By: Shaykh muhammad ibn abdil-wahhab al-wasaabee
Pages: 11-13
NOTE: below is Def. of Islam along with its proof. alhamdulillah. something important and very basic for all of us to learn and know. please excuse me for not writing the def. exactly word for word from the book i cited b/c i read and wrote from memory, then i took proof citation and took from 'noble qur'an'. so that's how i missed having exact copy. otherwise all is same.
