    In Islam, the terms “Islam” and “Iman” refer to two different but interconnected aspects of faith and belief:Islam:Islam is the broader term that encompasses the religion itself. It refers to the outward submission and practice of the religion, including the performance of religious rituals and adherence to Islamic laws and commandments.When someone says they have embraced “Islam,” it means they have accepted and converted to the religion of Islam, following its practices and beliefs.Iman:Iman (often spelled “Eman”) refers to an individual’s faith and belief in the core tenets of Islam. It is the inner aspect of faith and represents a person’s belief in the unseen, including belief in Allah (God), the angels, the holy books, the prophets, the Day of Judgment, and divine decree (qadar).Iman is a deeply personal and internal conviction of faith. It is the aspect of faith that resides in one’s heart and mind.In summary, while “Islam” pertains to the outward practice and submission to the religion, “Iman” refers to the inner belief and faith in the foundational principles of Islam. Both Islam and Iman are important components of a Muslim’s life, as they encompass both the external acts of worship and the internal convictions of faith.
