Then eat of all fruits...

Then eat of all fruits, and follow the ways of they Lord, made smooth (for thee)".32 However in the case of man, the most superior creature in these three groups, guidance is by revelation. Divine organization goes to work and from its fountain-head revelations are revealed to the prophets by esteemed Angels and their like. Mans way of life is therefore ascertained, giving order to all aspects of his life guiding him towards the way for achieving happiness in the two worlds.

This order or system and set of laws in Quranic Culture is called "Islam", it is a religion for mankind based on his nature and the realm of his existence, collating exactly with human disposition, coming from his "Lord". This is not just the proper name for the religion and special Divine law of The Last Prophet Mohammad (s.a.w).

That which all of the prophets proclaimed; Noah, Abraham, Moses, and Jesus, all had the name of "Islam" This is to the point where the Quran informs us that no name appeared for it before Noah (a.s), but from his time onward the name for all of Gods Divine Laws is "Islam". We discussed this before and we saw that according to Quranic logic "Lo!

religion with Allah (is) al-Islam (The Surrender to his will and guidance) Those who (formerly) received the scripture differed only after knowledge came unto them, through transgression among themselves". 33 Hence, a description of Islam may be summed up in this form: «The set of laws that The Lord of Mankind has expounded for him in proportion to his make-up and corresponding to human nature».

From here on our discussion will be about Islam in order to see what this Islam was (meaning mans way of life and thought, beliefs and morality), and what form it took after the Prophets death. We will also see how it was emptied of its original content and what should be done now. The Holy Prophet (s.a.w) had announced «nothing will remain of Islam but its name». What was this "Islam" and how did it become so empty and hollow that only its name remains?

With an accurate analysis of Islam we will discover it has four types of existence.
