 Islam - The Easy Way Empty

Introduction


One of the terms used by the Qur'an during the early Makkan

period to describe Islam was Al-Yusraa, or 'The Easy Way'. This is simply

because Islam was, and is the natural way of life. Indeed, whatever is natural

for human beings should be easy for them in every way, hence cause them to

gravitate towards it easily, and consequently bring harmony, peace and

tranquility to their lives. Since the Quran is the book upon which the Islamic

way of life is built, then the Quran has to be easy to understand and follow-it

is 'The Easy Way'.



This view that Islam is easy to understand and practice, is one which is

derived from the primary sources of Islam. In the Quran, Allah comforts us by

continuously reassuring us that He desires for us ease not hardship, despite the

seemingly formidable trials and tribulations that we may sometimes face. He

says:

<blockquote>

<blockquote>

'God desires ease for you, and desires not hardship'

(2:185);



'Truly with hardship comes ease'

(94: 6);



'God will assuredly appoint, after difficulty; easiness'

(65:7);



'Whoso fears God, God will appoint for him, of His command, easiness'

(65:4);



'We shall speak to him, of our command, easiness'

(18:88);



'God desires to lighten things for you, for the human being has been created

weak' (94:28).



</blockquote>

</blockquote>




In addition to the Quran, the Hadith literature is also

replete with references exhorting us to adopt a balanced and simple approach to

life. Prophet Muhammad (saw) has advised us: 'This Deen or way of life is easy

But if anyone overdoes it, it gets the better of him. So keep to the right

course, approximate to perfection, rejoice, and ask for help in the mornings,

the evenings, and some of the latter part of the night' (Bukhari). The Prophet

(saw) has also praised those who adopt a moderate approach to 'ibadah or

worship. Ibadab, he said, should be done with freshness of heart, not an

exhausting routine carried out in spite of fatigue.

<blockquote>

<blockquote>




'Do those deeds which you can do easily, as Allah will

not get tired [of giving rewards] till you get bored and tired [of

performing good deeds! ... and the most beloved deed to Allah is the one

which is done regularly even if it is little'

(Bukhari).



</blockquote>

</blockquote>




Islam is not Complex


Islam is not a way of life that is complex or difficult.

Rather it is the human being who practices Islam who often makes it

difficult-and then, complexity overtakes him so that eventually he is unable to

cope with even the simplest of tasks. That it is possible for every person to

understand and practice Islam is assured by the following three principles:


Firstly, the basic beliefs contain no mystery and are

therefore easy to comprehend. Every tenet in Islam is subject to analysis and

inquiry. Moreover, Islam does not present stumbling blocks to the mind. Islam

does not present concepts or ideas which the intellect cannot grasp. Even the

simplest of minds can understand its basic beliefs. It is therefore not

surprising that its beliefs are universal.


Secondly, the most important and stringent obligations

ordained upon Muslims are easy to undertake. That is, the duties and obligations

laid down by Allah have been graded. And, it is the wisdom of Allah that the

greater the importance He has attached to any act, the easier it is for everyone

to accomplish it. Thus, for example, the five daily Salat (Prayers) and Sawm

(fasting) during the month of Ramadan are compulsory upon everyone, since they

are within every-one 5 reach to accomplish. Zakat (almsgiving) and Hajj

(pilgrimage), on the other hand, though fundamental pillars of Islam, are not

compulsory upon everyone. If it were made compulsory upon everyone, then those

who did not possess the financial means would be unable to carry out these

duties. In such cases, it would not have been possible for everyone to practice

Islam in all its facets. Therefore, these duties are obligatory only upon those

who have the means to do so.


Thirdly, there are provisions for derogation when it is

genuinely not possible for someone to fulfill an obligation. For instance, if a

person is genuinely unable to stand up and pray, then he is permitted to sit

down or even lie down and pray. Similarly, if there is no water available to

perform the wudu or ablution before prayer, then one can make tayammum, which is

a simple dry ablution performed by using clean earth or dust. Therefore, even

when there appear to be difficulties, if one looks closely at the Shari'ah or

Islamic legal code as a whole, one will find so many rules relating to

derogation that enable one to practice Islam very easily-and this is the case

regardless of the problem: political, economic or simply personal. Indeed,

throughout the Quran various provisions have been made to ease things for

travelers, for the sick, for pregnant or nursing women, for the old and for the

poor, for on no soul does Allah place a burden greater than it can bear

(7: 42)

and 'He has chosen you,

and has imposed no difficulties on you in religion'

(22: 78).




Therefore, as long as one possesses the basic tools-a sound

knowledge of what is stated in the Shari'ah regarding a particular matter and an

awareness of the responsibility for ones own actions-a person may decide for

himself when to derogate from the standard. Thus, although according to the

Shari'ah it is haram (or unlawful) to eat pork, if someone is on the brink of

starvation and the only food available is this pork, then one can decide for

oneself whether and when to consume this haram meat in order to survive, and

thereby derogate from the standard. Of course, this does not make the pork halal

or lawful, but neither will one be punished for committing a haram or prohibited

act, so long as it is necessary for one's essential well being as a Muslim.




The Path of Moderation


Moderation which leads to balance, is a fundamental and

distinguishing feature of Islam. Allah tells us:

'We have made you a nation

justly balanced' (2:143). Additionally,

when the Quranic verse

'As to monasticism which they themselves invented, We did not prescribe any of

it for them'

(57: 27)

was revealed, the Prophet Muhammad commented:

'Do not overburden yourselves, lest

you perish. People [before you] overburdened themselves and perished. Their

remains are found in hermitages and monasteries'

(Musnad of Abu Ya'la).

In other words, excesses may eventually develop into large problems and even

become a threat to the well being and security of the Muslim community.


Indeed, the Prophet always resisted any tendency towards

religious excessiveness. He once said to his close Companion Abdullah ibn 'Amr:

'Have I heard tight that you

fast everyday and stand in prayer all night?' Abdullah replied, 'Yes, 0

Messenger of God: The Prophet said, 'Do not do that. Fast, as well as, eat and

drink. Stand in prayer, as well as, sleep. This is because your body has a right

upon you, your eyes have a right upon you, your wife has a right upon you, and

your guest has a right upon you

(Bukhari, Muslim).

Abiding by the will of Allah requires that we seek and maintain a delicate

balance between the various obligations that demand our attention; between our

obligations to Allah, our obligations towards others and our obligations towards

ourselves. Moreover, whenever the Prophet had to choose between two options, he

always chose the easier, unless it was explicitly forbidden

(Bukhari).




Maintaining a Joyful Disposition


Allah wants us to enjoy ourselves not only in the Hereafter

but also in this world. Allah tells us in the Quran to pray for both

'the good in this world and the

good in the Hereafter'

(2:201).


Additionally the Quran speaks extensively about the enjoyment

of life:

<blockquote>

<blockquote>


'O children of Adam! Wear your beautiful apparel at every

time and place of prayer Eat and drink but waste not by excess, for Allah

loves not wasters. Say: 'who has forbidden the beautiful gifts of Allah

which He has produced for His servants and the things clean and pure which

He has provided for sustenance'

(7:30-301).

</blockquote>

</blockquote>




And again,

<blockquote>

<blockquote>


'O you who believe! Make not unlawful the good things

Allah has made lawful to you. But commit no excess, for Allah does not like

those given to excess. Eat of the things which Allah has provided you,

lawful and good, but fear Allah, in whom you believe'

(4: 86-88).



</blockquote>

</blockquote>


Surprising as it may seem to some of us, the Prophet not only

accepted jokes; he also told them himself He was cheerful and possessed an

easygoing character He was always smiling at his Companions and enjoyed their

conversations. He also possessed a very keen sense of humor. But, his jokes were

more of a philosophical nature, never inappropriate and always true. For

example, once an old lady went to the Prophet and asked whether after her death

she would enter Paradise or not. To this the Prophet replied, 'No old woman

would enter heaven'. On hearing this, the woman was naturally very sad. 'Then,

what is the reward for them?' she asked. The Prophet relieved her anxiety by

saying, 'All old people will be made young before they enter Paradise.'




Relaxing your Mind


From the analysis above, it should be clear that Islam does

not expect of any individual that he should spend all his leisure time in the

mosque or at home and should listen to nothing but recitation of the Quran, or

for that matter, be engaged in exclusively 'religious' pursuits. Rather, it

recognizes that we are human beings, so that, as we eat and drink, and also need

to relax and enjoy our-selves.


Relaxation is not at odds with piety and dignity. The Prophet

prayed and engaged in worship more than anyone, but he also enjoyed good things,

smiled and joked. Indeed, in his prayers he would beseech Allah for the good

things of this world. Relaxing the mind also has the additional benefit of

resting and rejuvenating the body so that when we eventually return to fulfill

out various obligations, we will be more focused and ready All ibn Abu Talib

once said: 'Minds get tired, so do bodies, so treat them with humor' and

'Refresh your minds from time to time, for a tired mind becomes blind'. Another

Companion of the Prophet, Abu Darda said: 'I entertain my heart with something

trivial in order to make it stronger in the service of the truth'.


As we have highlighted before, the approach of the Prophet to

life's activities was always a balanced one. As devoted as he was in his

personal worship, he was quick to indicate to his followers that the path of

Islam is the way of moderation. Thus, when he heard that one of his attendants

was continuously fasting during the day and spending the entire night in prayer,

he remarked: 'In every deed [of action] there is a peak followed by lassitude.

He who, in his lassitude, follows my Sunnah [the part of moderation] is on the

right path, but he who, in his lassitude, follows another [guidance] has [erred

and] gone astray [from the straight path Allah has revealed]' (al Bazzaz)




Making Islam Easy for Others


In sharing the message of Islam with people the Prophet was

advised in the Quran: 'It

is part of the mercy of Allah that you deal gently with them If you were severe

or hardhearted, they would have broken away from you'

(3: 159).

Thus, when the Prophet sent his Companions Mu'adh and Abu Musa to teach Islam to

the people of Yemen, he gave them the following advice:

'Facilitate [religious matters to

people] and do not make [things] difficult. Obey each other and do not differ

[amongst yourselves].'

(Bukhari & Muslim).




On other occasions he also said:

'This Deen or way of life is easy';

'Make it easy, don't make it difficult; 'Let people rejoice in being Muslims and

not run away from it' and

'Cheerfulness towards other people,

even a smile is a sadaqah or charity to be rewarded by Allah'.




Moreover, a person-in seeking to purify himself and further

develop his God-consciousness-may choose to place greater demands of worship

upon himself, but this in no way means that he has the right to impose or force

the same on others, and thereby, unconsciously alienate them from Islam. The

Prophet exemplified this in his own life because he used to prolong the Salat

whenever he was alone, but he would shorten it whenever he led others in Salah.

Regarding this he said:

'Whoever among you leads the people in Salat, he should shorten it, for amongst

them are the weak, the old, and the one who has business to attend to. And if

anyone among you performs Salat alone, he may then prolong [Salat] as much as he

wishes' (Bukhari).


Similarly, 'Umar Ibn al Khattab emphasized that creating

unnecessary difficulties for people may well have the effect of leading them

away from Allah, rather than making them better Muslims. He advised: 'Do not

make Allah hateful to His servants by leading people in Salat and so prolonging

it that they come to hate what they are doing'


Ease versus Hardship


To say, however, that Islam is easy and not 'difficult', is

not to imply that Muslims will not face 'hardship'-and here the two terms must

be distinguished. Indeed, although Islam is easy to understand and practice, the

whole purpose of the trial is to make manifest the degree to which an individual

is steadfast (and hence sincere) in his submission to Allah- and this is

precisely what is indicated by the Quranic verse:

'And We will most certainly test

you with something of fear and hunger, and loss of possessions and lives and

crops'

(2:155).


Notwithstanding these trials however, we can find ease in

this world and the next. But, this will be so only if we are firm in our faith

in Allah and follow the course prescribed by Islam, as He Himself has declared:

'But give good news to

those who are patient, who, when a calamity strikes them, say: 'Indeed we belong

to God and indeed to Him we shall be returning: They are those on whom are

blessings from their Sustainer, and mercy-and those, they are the

rightly-guided.
