What is Iman in Islam?
In islam Iman is to give sahada "La Ilaha Illallahu Muhammadur Rasulullah".
Meaning of La Ilaha Illallah:
In short the sentence means that "There is no God but ALLAH".In broader sense it means that "What ever we see in the world and whatever exists outsides of our vision, all are creation except ALLAH.No creation can do anything with out the order of ALLAH but ALLAH can do everything without the help of any creation.To be certain that whatever is happening through a “cause” is not in reality originating from it, butrather, is happening only because Allah has ordered or willed it. For example, water is dependant on the hukm[command] of Allah to quench thirst. Also, to cure, medication is contingent on Allah’s hukm. Likewise, the human heart depends on the hukm of Allah to pulsate and nourish cells throughout the body. Similarly, without Allah commanding it to, the universe is devoid of any power or ability to exist.
Meaning of Muhammadur Rasulullah:
Its wordly meaning is that "Hazrat Muhammad(Peach BE Upon Him) is the Messenger of ALLAH " . Its broader meaning is that Our worldly as well as the life hereafter's happiness,peach,success,properity depend only on following the noble path of Hazrat Muhammad(Peach Be Upon Him).And this is the only way to lead life.All the other's way are wrong and misguided .
Some of the merits or virtues of the blessed Kalima:
1.The Messenger of Allah(Peach Be Upon Him) said: He who accepts from me the Kalima, which I presented to my uncle (Abu Talib at the time of his death) and he rejected it, this (acceptance) will be a means for his salvation.
2.The Messenger of Allah (Peach Be Upon Him) said: Indeed, I know a Kalima which if recited by a dying man, will be a means of solace for his departing soul and will be a light for him on the Day of Resurrection (this Kalima is La ilaha illa’llah).
3. the Prophet (Peach Be Upon Him) said: Each and every such person will be liberated from the Fire, who had said La ilaha illa’llah, and in his heart, there was goodness (iman) equal to the weight of a grain of barley. After them, every such person will be liberated from the Fire who had said La ilaha illa’llah, and in his heart, there was goodness (iman) equal to the weight of a grain of wheat. After that, everyone will be liberated from the Fire who had said La ilaha illa’llah, and in his heart, there was goodness (iman) equal to the weight of a particle of dust.
4.The Messenger of Allah(Peach Be Upon Him) said: He who bears witness that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad (Peach Be Upon Him) is the Messenger of Allah, and his tongue frequently recites it while his heart is contented with it, the Fire shall not burn him.
5.The Prophet (Peach Be Upon Him) said: Anyone who dies, bearing witness with certainty of his heart that there is none worthy of worship but Allah and that I am His Messenger, will be forgiven by Allah.
How To achieve this Iman:
To achieve this Iman we should first read the related Hadis and Qurani Ayat and then in every situation we should give Imani dawat(invitation) to all sectors of people.We should never say the power of any creation but the Power of ALLAH and also try to give dawat(invitation) to the Path of the messanger of Allah(Peach Be Upon Him).And also dua(Application) to Allah solely and with crying as ALLAH gives us Iman
