Religion in Everyday Life
The profession of faith, the first of the so-called Five Pillars of Islam (the basic requirements for the faithful Muslim), states clearly and unambiguously that “there is no God but Allah.” In accordance with this principle, the religion knows no greater sin than shirk (“partnership”), the attribution of partners to Allah; that is to say, polytheism or anything that may look like it-e.g., the notion of a divine trinity. The passionate importance given to the proclamation of Yahweh as the one god who counts for Israel and the equally passionate rejection of other gods, however, make it truer to speak of the monotheism of Israel, as in what became the Jewish affirmation of faith, “Hear, O Israel, the Lord is our God, one Lord” (Deuteronomy 6:4; New English Bible). The eminent Dutch Hebrew Bible scholar Theodorus C. Vriezen wrote: “It is striking how the whole life of the people is seen as dominated by Yahweh and by Yahweh alone. There may be some reason to speak of the conception of God found in the Hebrew Scriptures as monolatry rather than as monotheism, because the existence of other gods is seldom explicitly denied and many times even acknowledged.
Egyptian religion is of special interest with regard to the various topics treated in this article, for in it are found polytheism, henotheism, pluriform monotheism, trinitarian speculations, and even a kind of monotheism. These ideas are especially interesting when related to trinitarian conceptions, as they sometimes are. The Christian Bible, including the New Testament, has no trinitarian statements or speculations concerning the doctrine of the Trinity-only triadic liturgical formulas invoking God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The faith of the movement focuses on a new Holy Trinity – Wing, Wang and Wong. Continue to believe that the statement of Lord of the faith and expressing faith in him during the prayer. Offering the Taraweeh prayer is one of the best ways of gaining maximum blessings in the month of Ramadan but offer it in true essence. The second definition I found is “The gaining of fame or prosperity” (AHD). In this second regional variant, the ʿimāmah becomes a full turban replacing the cap, or fez.
Among the Sunnis-from Iraq eastward-the jubbah is worn in association with an ʿabāʾ (a long, full garment), traditionally of camel hair and brown or black. In the western part of the Muslim world, “clerical” dress tended to become standardized according to the Azhar (Egyptian) pattern: a long wide-sleeved gown (jubbah) reaching to the feet and buttoned halfway down its total length over a striped garment (caftan), with headgear consisting of a soft collapsible cap (qalansūwah) of red felt around which is wound a white muslin ʿimāmah. Both the qalansūwah and the ṭarbūsh are provided with a blue tassel. In Syria a hard ṭarbūsh of the same red shade replaces the qalansūwah. It is, of course, unlikely that there are any historical connections between these phenomena; both, however, try to solve what is more or less the same problem in more or less the same manner. In later times-beginning in the 6th century bce and continuing into the early centuries of the Common Era-Jewish monotheism developed in the same direction as did Christianity and also later Islam under the influence of Greek philosophy and became monotheistic in the strict sense of the word, affirming the one God for all persons everywhere.
This conception was not accepted without contradiction, as is proved by theological disputes of the 3rd and 4th centuries. Each and every community and religion possess different worshiping styles to let their selves and GOD both happy. But let me add two things. These were ‘a small jewel and a ring with four big stones and some smaller stones, a dagger with a gold and copper sheath wrapped in a silver cloth, a golden cup and saucer and a gold-plated silver pot and two Malay speaking parrots with silver chains. Four religious holidays are included among the national holidays in Tunisia: Eid al-Adha, Eid al-Fitr, Muharram, and Mawlid. Forgiving grace requires the strength of God because when I’m left to my own thoughts, revenge and/or depression are at the forefront of my mind. According to Islamic doctrine, the Christian dogma of a trinitarian god is a form of tritheism-of a three-god belief. Like other religions that cover a large territory and have a long history, Christianity appears in a multitude of variations: there is Christian pantheism, Deism, and even, paradoxically, Christian atheism, as exemplified in the mid-20th-century “death of God” theologies.
