One day while Prophet Muhammad SAWW was sitting in the company of some people, the Angel Jibreel came and asked: “What is Faith (Eman)?” Allah’s Messenger SAWW replied: “Faith is to believe in Allah SWT, His Angels, (the) meeting with Him, His Apostles and to believe in Resurrection.”
Sahih Al-Bukhari
Hadith#50
Emaan is a heartfelt affirmation that is usually termed as believing in God, His Messengers, His angels, His scriptures, resurrection, and fate i.e. all good and bad is from Allah Almighty.
Allah swt says in Quran Soorah Nisa, Verse136:
يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا آمِنُوا بِاللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ وَالْكِتَابِ الَّذِي نَزَّلَ عَلَىٰ رَسُولِهِ وَالْكِتَابِ الَّذِي أَنزَلَ مِن قَبْلُ ۚ وَمَن يَكْفُرْ بِاللَّهِ وَمَلَائِكَتِهِ وَكُتُبِهِ وَرُسُلِهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ فَقَدْ ضَلَّ ضَلَالًا بَعِيدًا
(Believers! Believe in Allah and His Messenger and in the Book He has revealed to His Messenger, and in the Book He revealed before. And whoever disbelieves in Allah, in His angels, in His Books, in His Messengers and in the Last Day, has indeed strayed far away)
A prerequisite of Emaan is to avoid all sort of doubts and suspicions, so Emaan can not coincide with the minor doubt.
