| [ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Making things easier is one of the lofty ideals of the religion of Islam. It is the basis for all the rituals that are made obligatory for the faithful. Ease is the opposite of hardship as the Holy Qur’an puts it. "Allah intends for you ease and does not intend for you hardship." The Qur’anic verse related to fasting gives exemption for the sick and those who are traveling from observing fasting on the condition that they have to make it up later. Such concessions are applied to other obligatory rituals as well. Allah has provided ease with every hardship. The Qur’an says in Surah Inshirah: "For indeed, with hardship (will be) ease." The Prophet (peace be upon him) never had two choices, except that he chose the easier of them. But some people tend to be hardened and narrow in their viewpoints on religious matters, though it has no basis either in the Book of Allah or in the Tradition of the Prophet (Sunnah). |
