BALANCE BETWEEN SPIRITUAL VICTORY AND LAW REGULATION IN ISLAM

Summary/Abstract: On its way of achievement of its goals Islam uses two basic factors: a) Factor of spiritual initiative and b) Factor of law, meaning even material punishment Factor of spiritual initiative is more decisive than the factor of law, so that special attention is paid to human heart as dwelling of the whole series of spiritual actions, as: arousing of belief in God, in afterlife, in permanent Devine control, hope in His mercy, certainty that whatever is being done is don for fear of Him, and that heart also is hiding place of fear of God’s punishment, etc. In order to achieve these categories the following methods are used: a) Regular interpretation of the message of Islam; b) Prayer (ibadat) c) Reciting and careful listening of Qur’an with comprehension of the text d) Persistence in mentioning of God, His exaltation (zikr and tasbih) and asking for His refuge, release and protection, e) Idea of death, death agony, partition with this world and transfer from the court to dark and cold grave, f) Idea of the Day of Judgment etc.
