Zaira Wasim Instagram – “And in the Hereafter they have Yaqin (certainity)” -Qur’an 2:4 The people described here are those whom Allah described in the preceding Ayah (verse)- “Those who have Iman (faith) in the Ghayb (unseen) and perform Salah and spend out of what We have provided for them (2:3) These are attributes of the believers and hence Yaqin is to Iman what the soul is to the body. For it is not possible that one believes in the Ghayb (the unseen), performs the prayer and gives Zakah without believing in Allah and what the Prophet ﷺ was sent with. As Ibn Qayim al Jawziyyah رحمه الله explains, ‘Yaqin is the soul to the actions of the heart which in turn formulate the souls to the actions of the limbs and through it one attains the rank of the Siddiq (the truthful). From Yaqin sprouts absolute reliance in Allah and through Yaqin all doubts and worries are dispelled and the heart is filled with love, hope, and fear of Allah. This is why some of the righteous predecessors said, “Yaqin is from Iman (faith)”’
