Faith and Emaan both are synonyms. Emaan involves 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 Faith is to avoid all sorts of doubts and suspicions about it, so faith can not coincide with the minor doubt.
Faith in Islam, often referred to as “iman,” is a central concept in the religion. It encompasses a belief in the fundamental principles of Islam, which include:
Belief in Allah (God): Muslims believe in the oneness of Allah, who is considered the one true God in Islam.
Belief in Angels: Muslims have faith in the existence of angels as spiritual beings created by Allah to carry out various tasks.
Belief in Prophets: This includes belief in all the prophets sent by Allah, with Muhammad being the final prophet.
Belief in Holy Scriptures: Muslims believe in the divine revelations, including the Quran, which is considered the final and most authoritative revelation.
Belief in the Day of Judgment: Muslims have faith that there will be a Day of Judgment when all individuals will be held accountable for their deeds, and they will be rewarded or punished accordingly.
Belief in Predestination: Muslims believe in Allah’s divine will and predestination, known as Qadar, which encompasses everything that happens in the universe.
Faith in Islam is not just a mental belief but is also expressed through acts of worship, ethical conduct, and following the teachings of the religion. It plays a fundamental role in guiding the lives of Muslims and their relationship with Allah and others.
emaan means stop yourself for those bad work in which Allah said that is haram or forbidden
