"Those who believe and do not stain with the oppression of their faith (polytheism), they are the ones who get their peace and that the people who keep the guidance path."
(Al-An'am: 82).

Many people who think and claims to believe, but in addition, he was also doing the things that disturb that faith, or even to abort the faith itself. This was caused by many factors; of them, because of their ignorance, or perhaps because of their pride and arrogance that they do not want to accept the truth presented to them. Yet, in matters of faith and monotheism, there is no udzur (reason) stupidity. Thus, one can not reason with ignorance (ignorance) when one of them in matters of faith and monotheism is. And wrong in this matter would be fatal. The problem of unity of faith and this is a very principle of a Muslim, which is the basis and foundation for her, which strongly determine whether buildings are built on that foundation. However, most people just stupid in this case, that consciously or unconsciously they are often marred their faith. So, do not need any diherankan religious leaders, who said his religious perspective and broad reckless in taking the attitude that it is clearly contrary to the religion. As if he was the person who knew nothing of the religion. Why? It is because of the foundation, footing foundation is not strong. The foundation is the belief in question.

Many people, even the so-called scholars, who were mistaken in understanding the verses above. Perhaps because of their ignorance to information about the verse that comes from the Messenger of Allah., Or perhaps because they used to interpret the verse with their own minds based on science without. They interpret these verses is that those who believe and do not sully her faith with the oppression, the oppression of others and themselves, that they are entitled to reassurance and guidance. They merely menafsiri's oppression. While no human in this world who never mendzalimi himself, except a few people who are protected by God.

Therefore, let us refer to how Ibn Kathir commented on the verse. He says, "That is, they are people who purify worship Allaah Alone, they do not associate him at all, and they are the ones who secure on the Day of Resurrection, and receive guidance on akherat world."

Diriwayatan by Imam Bukhari, "When we got off the verse, 'Those who believe, and do not stain with the oppression of their faith', we (the companions) said, 'O Messenger of Allah, siapakan among us who do not mendzalimi him?" He said, 'It's not like you say, they do not stain with the oppression of their faith, but with idolatry. Do not you have noticed the words of Luqman to his son?, "O my son, do not ascribe to God. Indeed, to ally God is great oppression' (Luqman: 13) '. "

Imam Ahmad also narrated from Abdullah similar things, he said, "When we got off the verse, 'Those who believe, and do not stain with the oppression of their faith', it causes the Companions of the Prophet. Became restless. Then they asked, 'O Messenger of Allah Who among us who do not mendzalimi him? " He replied, 'Actually, that's not what you all mean. Are not you all heard what was said by a pious servant,' My son, do not ascribe Allah, to ally (God) is a great oppression '(Luqman: 13) '. "

Shaykh al-Islam said, "What makes them nervous is, they think that the oppression that must be eliminated oppression it is a slave to himself. Meanwhile, there is no peace and guidance except for those who never mendzalimi himself. So, the Prophet Messenger. description of something that shows them, that idolatry is called oppression by saying the Book of Allah. So, there will be no peace and guidance except for those who did not sully his faith with this oppression. because, people who do not sully his faith with peace of oppression entitled meneriman and he sebagaiamana instructions of those choices. As the word of God, "then the Book that we leave to the people who we choose among Our servants, and among them are some who wronged themselves, and between them there is a middle, and among them are (also) a leader in idzin doing good with God. That is a very big gift. "(Fatir: 32).

This does not deny that one of them was tortured because of self kedzalimannya with sin if he does not repent. As the Almighty says, "Whoever is doing good even weighing a small ant, surely he would see the (return) it. And whoever is doing the crime was weighing a small ant, surely he would see the (reward) him too." (Az-Zalzala: 7-8).

Abu Bakr asked the Messenger of Allah., "O Messenger of Allah, who among us does not do anything bad? Then he answered, 'O Abu Bakr, do not you have pains? Did not you ever sad? Did not you ever been hit by unrest? That's what you returned to him '. "

Thus, he explained that a believer that if you die and then he go to heaven, sometimes a crime has been rewarded in the world with the catastrophe.

He who survived the three types of oppression; shirk, mendzalimi others, and self mendzalimi sin behavior than shirk, then her tranquility and the perfect guide. Whereas he who did not survive the oppression of his own, so for him reassurance and guidance that is still absolute. In a sense, that he would go to heaven as promised by God in another paragraph. God has given him directions to the straight path that led him to heaven. However, he also will get security and a less than perfect instructions depending on the lack of faith in the form of oppression against itself. Not what the Prophet meant. in his saying, "But it is shirk." Is that people who never make a big shirk, her tranquility and the perfect guide. Because, many traditions and Quranic verses explaining that the people who maklukan sin (Ahlul kaba'ir) will face the fear. They do not get peace and full instructions, which they both receive guidance to the straight path, the path for those who have God's favor to him without any punishment that had befallen. Instead they get a minimum standard directions for this road and a grace from God to them, and they will go to heaven.

Word of the Prophet, "But it is shirk," if you want a big shirk, then the point is people who do not make a big shirk will be safe from the torment of the world and akherat, who promised to idolaters. If that meant here is a small shirk, so if a servant mendzalimi himself, as illiberal in some liability for the love of the world, then it is a small shirk. Also, his love for something that incurred the Wrath of God so desires to put his love for God and so forth, it is a small shirk and so on. So, people like this will lose the instructions, depending on kesyirikannya. With these considerations, the scholars' pious Salaf to categorize sin into this kesyirikan. "That was the opinion of Ibn Taymiyyah.

From the above description, it seems quite clear to us what the meaning is contained in the above verse. Oppression is referred to in paragraph above is shirk. Although some self-oppression can also be included in this kesyirikan. So, those who believe, that does not interfere with kesyirikan their faith, they are entitled to peace and guidance.

In fact, very few people who actually pure faith, clean and not stained with the filth of polytheism. This should give encouragement to us to be careful lest we fall into the abyss kesyirikan, which when stained with our faith, the peace and guidance that we hope we will not get, and quite the contrary, we will have accidents and misery prolonged. Dzalik Na'udzubillah min.

God says, "And most of them do not believe in God, but in a state to ally God (with the other gods)." (Yusuf: 106).

Tauhid (faith) and polytheism, both of which may never be united in one's heart. Because both contradictory. If you believe, it should remove and throw away kesyirikan. If someone did kesyirikan (major shirk), directly faith will fade and void.

As for the things that belong Shirk very much. That all the point is to ally God, or make counter to God. Sometimes someone does an act that he believed that the act is right because he did it without instructions (indication), simply because suspicion or because the bandwagon, but actions that are included kesyirikan. So, terhapuslah deeds did he do it or all the charity work, and finally, he will bear the burden of a very, very hard in the face of God. Because, Shirk is a great sin the most. And will not be forgiven, if not converted before life got to the throat.

However, ideally we should be trying hard and we can be to leave all sorts of sins. Because, the scholars' to categorize all kinds of sins to the oppression. Whether it dzalim to yourself, or dzalim to others. The greatest oppression is oppression in the matter of unity, the oppression of a servant to Allah Almighty. What is called the sin that is derived from two things; leave orders, or work restrictions. And from all that, the biggest case is related to faith and monotheism. The most important commandment is monotheism, and the prohibition of the greatest is shirk.

O Allah, protect us from associating you with something, while we know it. And forgive us, to a kesyirikan that we do not know. (Zen).
