| Summary: | Islam is a religion of ease, there is no inconvenience in its ritual obligations prescribed for its
followers and when contemplating on the acts of worship which Almighty Allah has ordered
Muslims to perform and the way to carry out these acts, there is ultimate ease and
simplicity. Almighty Allah distinguished the Islamic religious obligations from other past
nations with ease in worship. The Quranic main purpose and objectives is to make people's
lives easy by guiding them to worship Almighty Allah, and to disseminate ease among people
in terms of perception, mindset, behavior and coexistence. Therefore, this research aims at
establishing the legal basis of the concept of ease in the aspect of worship as per perception of
the Quranic expression, and manifestation of ease in worship and its objectives in order to
explain the reality of Islam in terms of being a religion of ease and moderation. It also aims to
highlight the tolerance aspect of Islamic law. The research aims at explaining the concept of
ease, its Quranic derivations and conjugations, and to explain Quranic ease in the aspect of
worship. This qualitative research depended on gathering information based on inductive
descriptive approach which dissects verses about ease and interprets them, and it also followed
the analytic approach through abstracting semantics of the verses and lessons learnt from such
verses. Among the conclusions reached in this research is the simplicity and ease of the legal
rulings, and aversion of inconvenience, bearing in mind that anything which is extreme or
creates inconvenience exits the concept of ease and has no basis in the Islamic religion. Ease
is a vital objective of the purposes of the Islamic law. It is the means which should lead to the
worship of the Almighty Allah, and it is from this where the importance of explaining the
concept of ease comes through the Holy Qur’an to present it to people, preachers and
educators. |
