    1. Islam and Division of Rights:

    • Islam is a monotheistic Abrahamic religion founded on the belief in the oneness of God (Allah) and the prophethood of Muhammad (peace be upon him).
    • The division of rights (Haq Allah and Haq ibaad) is a concept in Islamic jurisprudence. Haq Allah refers to the rights of God, including worship and obedience, while Haq ibada refers to the rights of fellow human beings.

    2. Shirk (Associating Partners with God):

    • Shirk is the gravest sin in Islam and is prohibited in the strongest terms.
    • It involves associating partners with God or ascribing divine attributes to others besides God.
    • Belief in the absolute oneness of God (Tawhid) is fundamental to Islam.

    3. Riba (Usury or Interest):

    • Riba refers to the charging or payment of interest on loans or financial transactions.
    • It is considered exploitative and is prohibited in Islam to ensure fair and ethical economic practices.
    • Muslims are encouraged to engage in financial transactions that do not involve interest.

    4. Zina (Adultery or Fornication):

    • Zina refers to engaging in sexual relations outside the bonds of a lawful marriage.
    • It is considered a major sin in Islam and is prohibited to maintain the sanctity of the family institution.

    5. Theft and Theft (Theft and Robbery):

    • Theft and robbery are prohibited acts that involve unlawfully taking the property of others.
    • Islam emphasizes the importance of honesty, integrity, and respect for others’ property rights.

    6. Disobedience to Parents:

    7. Backbiting and Slander:

    • Backbiting and slander involve speaking negatively about someone behind their back or spreading false information to harm their reputation.

    In summary, Islam is based on the belief in the oneness of God and the prophethood of Muhammad. It divides rights into Haq Allah (rights of God) and Haq ibaad (rights of fellow human beings). Among the major prohibited actions in Islam are Shirk (associating partners with God), Riba (usury or interest), Zina (adultery or fornication), theft and robbery, disobedience to parents, and backbiting and slander. These prohibitions aim to promote ethical and just behavior among Muslims.
