Pillars of faith, names of Allah, prophets and angels — strengthen your creed.
Aqida (creed) is the foundation of Islam: what a Muslim believes about Allah, revelation, the Hereafter and destiny. This guide clarifies the six pillars of faith before you revise with Qalima quizzes.
Faith in Allah, His angels, His books, His messengers, the Last Day and destiny (qadar) forms the core of iman.
Each pillar has a place in daily life: tawhid shapes worship, belief in messengers connects us to the Quran and Sunna, and the Last Day gives meaning to choices.
Tawhid is Allah's absolute oneness in lordship, names and worship. Shirk — associating partners with Allah — is the gravest violation of creed.
Knowing Allah's beautiful names (Asma ul-Husna) deepens trust (tawakkul) and sincere worship.
Start with clear definitions, then short quiz rounds. Avoid philosophical tangents before mastering basic vocabulary.
