I have a question

[zaidd]

Salam Aleykom

Was reading some threads and wanted to know what is a khuffir?

 

[zaidd]

and another thing I forgot to say

I try to say mashallah and inshalluh when I remember but don't always do. I hear it spoken a lot and do know what they both mean but, am not sure if its mandatory?

 

[Akilah]

Inshallah = God willing
Mashallah = Glory be to Allah

I am guessing you are asking about Kafr/khuffir, this means the non-believers/ people who reject Allah.

I hope this helps

 

[Akilah]

saying Mashallah and Inshallah are not mandatory, but they are very good things to say. Whether you say them in English or Arabic it does not truly matter either, it is the fact that you are remembering God, this is why it is good to say, and you get good deeds for saying them too!


Some other Good things to say are:

SubhanAllah = exalted is Allah
Alhumdulillah = praise belongs to Allah
Allahu Akbar = Allah is Great
Bismillah al Rahman Al Rahim In the name of God, the most Gracious the most Merciful

you can get more terms from here:

Kafir’ means one who rejects.

‘Kafir’ is derived from the word ‘kufr’, which means to conceal or to reject. In Islamic terminology, ‘Kafir’ means one who conceals or rejects the truth of Islam and a person who rejects Islam is in English called a ‘non-Muslim’.
