The Meaning of Ibādah and Islām


The Meaning  of Ibādah and Islām

Ibn Kathīr (رَحِمَهُ اللهُ) said:

Ibādah is obedience to Allāh  by acting upon what He commands, abandoning what He forbids, and this is the reality and essence of Islām. And the meaning of Islām is: Istislām (submission and surrender) to Allāh (سُبحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى) along with the utmost compliance, humility, and submissiveness to Him.”
