另一方面的以物配主,体现在崇拜之中。
Another aspect of polytheism is in worship
这一方面的危害较轻,因为它体现在那些相信“除安拉以外别无应当崇拜的主”、相信只有安拉才能伤害或利益某人、才能赐予或夺取某物的人的行为之中。然而,他们的行为并非全部纯粹地归于安拉——他们的行为在安拉、自身、恶魔和其他人之间有所分配。这也是大多数人的情况,而这正是先知ﷺ在圣训中所提到的多神崇拜:“此乌玛中的多神崇拜,比蚂蚁爬行还要隐秘。”他们问道:“安拉的使者啊,我们怎样才能免于此害?”他ﷺ回答说:“你们应当说:‘主啊,我求你庇护,免我明知故犯地以任何事物与你并列同拜;我为我所不知的过失向你求饶。’”安拉说:{你说:我只是和你们一样的人,蒙启示说:你们的主是独一的主。所以,谁希望见他的主,就让他行善,并且在敬拜他的主时不以任何人作配偶。}这意味着,正如安拉是唯一的主,除祂之外别无他神,同样,人的崇拜也应当专一地归于祂。在对安拉的崇拜中掺杂多神成分,会使人失去安拉的赏赐,甚至对于那些并非为安拉而做的行为,人还可能受到惩罚,尤其是当该行为是一项义务(宗教功课)时。安拉命令人们应当诚心诚意地为祂一人履行全部的崇拜,祂说:{他们仅被命令崇拜安拉,并为祂而诚心地奉行宗教。}因此,凡是在崇拜安拉时不诚心的人,必定没有遵照安拉的命令行事。安拉说:“我极其自足,无需任何同伴。因此,谁为了别人而做某项行为,同时也为了我,我就会弃绝那行为,并把它归于他所同拜的那个对象。” 4 一个人若把自己的爱和尊崇奉献给其他受造之物,与爱安拉的程度相当,便是在犯多神崇拜之罪。这种多神崇拜是不可饶恕的,因为安拉说:(人群中有些人以安拉之外的事物为匹敌者,爱它们如同爱安拉一样;但信道者对安拉的爱更为深厚。)5 那些持这种多神崇拜的人,在被聚集到火狱中时,会对他们所崇拜的神明说:(指安拉发誓,我们确实陷入了明显的迷误之中。我们竟把你们(那些假神)与全世界的主(人类、精灵以及一切存在之物的主)等同起来崇拜。)6
This aspect is less serious, because it is manifested in the actions of those who believe that there is no god worthy of worship but Allah ~. and that no one can harm or benefit someone, or give or remove something, except Allah ~. Alone; however not all their actions are devoted entirely to Allah ~- Their actions are divided between Allah ~. themselves, the devil and other people. This is the case of the majority of people, and is the polytheism mentioned by the Prophet ~ in the Hadith: "Polytheism in this Ummah is more hidden than the creeping of ants." They asked: "How do we save ourselves from it, 0 Messenger of Allah?" He ~ replied: "Say: 0 Allah, I seek refuge in You that I should associate anything (in worship) besides You, knowingly; and I seek Your Forgiveness for what is beyond my knowledge." 1 Allah ~ said: ( Say: I am only a man like you. It has been revealed to me that your God is One God (i.e. Allah). So whoever hopes for the Meeting with his Lord, let him work righteousness and associate none as a partner in the worship of his Lord) 2 i.e. just as He ~ is the only God and there is no other god but Him, then likewise one's worship should be devoted to Him, Alone. The polytheism in one's worship of Allah ~ cancels one's reward from Allah ~. and one may even be punished for any act which is not performed for the Sake of Allah ~ especially if it is an obligation (religious duty). Allah commanded that all of one's worship should be performed sincerely for Him, Alone; He ~ said: ( They were only ordered to worship Allah, making their religion sincerely His)3. Therefore, whoever is not sincere in his/her worship of Allah has certainly not acted according to the Command of Allah. Allah ~ said: "I am so Self-Sufficient that I am in no need of having an associate. Thus he who does an action for someone else's sake as well as Mine will have that action renounced by Me to him whom he associated with Me."4 One commits polytheism by devoting one's love and honour to other creations, just as much as one loves Allah. This type of polytheism is unforgivable, because Allah has ~ said: ( There are of mankind some who take (for worship) others besides Allah as rivals. They love them as they love Allah; but those who believe, love Allah more) 5. The people who adopt this kind of polytheism say to their gods, as they are gathered in the Hell-Fire: ( By Allah, we were truly in a manifest error. We held you (the false gods) as equals (in worship) with the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind,jinn and all that exists)) 6
