Summary/Abstract: The language of faith in Islam primarily derives from the Qur’anic revelation as a comprehensive and complete revelation of God. Just as the Word of God establishes and covers all aspects of existence as God’s last and most perfect step towards human civilization, so too does the language of faith in Islam touch upon and define every aspect of human life. To illustrate what has just been said, it is sufficient to analyze it only through five fundamental categories, the meanings of which unequivocally testify to this fact: fiṭra, īmān, islām, dīn and iḥsān. These concepts have already been discussed in detail in the literature. Therefore, this paper offers only definitions as evidence that we often talk about different aspects of the language of faith.
