Is Islam only about Rituals

            
             No, Islam is not only about rituals but instead it is a complete code of life. Islam teaches us to show submission to god. It is a religion, which teaches man all the moral and social obligations. It tells man about his social dealings in this world. It is a religion, which prepares man for the hereafter. Hence, we can say it is a complete code of life. Islam helps man in his every day life and also prepares him for the life, which is to come. Islam is based on morals, dealings with others and worship.
             Morals.

             Dealings with others.
             Islam tells a man about his duties towards his relatives and all the people living around him. Islam tells a man how to behave with his relatives and the people who live around him. Islam has laid great emphasis on the rights of relatives and people living all around us. We should behave politely and in a good manner with our relatives. The Holy prophet(pbuh)said "Allah may forgive sins we commit against him but sins against a fellow Muslim will not be forgiven until the person concern forgives us." imam Bukhari.
             Worship.
             Islam means to show complete submission to Allah. Therefore it is important for every Muslim to worship Allah and follow his commandments. We should not only pray but should also not do things which god has stopped us from doing. We should worship Allah with right intentions. Worship is an important article of our faith. Worship is the power Allah has given us to communicate with him and we should use this power. .
             Self analysis.
             In my opinion I try to follow all the important articles of faith.
