Meaning
Iman can be stated as acknowledging God with full sincerity of heart whilst accepting all His attributes and their obvious corollaries. Farāhī, whilst explaining the meaning of imān in his exegesis, has written:
"The root of imān is amn. It is used in various shades of meaning. One of its derivatives is mu’min, which is amongst the noble names of Allah because He gives peace to those who seek His refuge. This word is also an ancient religious term. Hence the certitude which exists with humility, trust and all the conditions and corollaries of adherence to a view is called imān and he who professes faith in Allah, in His signs and in His directives and submits himself to Him and is pleased with all His decisions is a mu’min."
