Submission
﷽
Submission which negates disobedience !
This means submitting to what is implied by the Shahadah , as opposed to ignoring or neglecting it.
Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):
“And turn in repentance and in obedience with true Faith (Islamic Monotheism) to your Lord and submit to Him (in Islam).”
“And who can be better in religion than one who submits his face (himself) to Allah (i.e. follows Allah’s religion of Islamic Monotheism); and he is a Muhsin (a good-doer.)”
“And whosoever submits his face (himself) to Allah, while he is a Muhsin (good-doer, i.e. performs good deeds totally for Allah’s sake without any show-off or to gain praise or fame and does them in accordance with the Sunnah of Allah’s Messenger Muhammad), then he has grasped the most trustworthy handhold [La ilaha ill-Allah (none has the right to be worshipped but Allah)]. And to Allah return all matters for decision.”
“submits his face” means, he submits fully. “While he is a muhsin (good-doer)” means he affirms the Unity of Allah.
