THE MANY SHADES OF SHIRK

Three Forms of Worship

Each religion has some practices and procedures that are called worship. Worship can be oral, physical, or monetary.

Oral worship is to pray to someone, appeal to someone when in need, to chant someone’s name in reverence, to address someone as the fulfiller of all needs and the helper of all those in distress, to swear an oath in someone’s name, to believe that someone has the power to forgive. 

Physical worship includes prostrating or bowing down to someone, directing your life in obedience to someone’s command for their pleasure and reward, to print or engraving the name or symbol of someone on your body or possessions in order to be blessed for it.

Monetary worship is to give charity in the name of someone, to harvest some land or rear an animal that has been dedicated to someone; to make a pilgrimage to a place connected with that being in order to worship and rejoice thereby decorating the place, offering sacrifices and gifts, considering the water there to be blessed and the environment to be sacred. 

Allah alone deserves to be worshipped and revered. Islam considers all the above to be legitimate forms of worship but maintains that Allah alone should be the object of this worship. Except for Islam, all other religions have made room for the worship of beings other than Allah.

History shows that man-made worship has not been confined to statues and pictures of ancestors only but has taken many different forms, some of which will be elucidated in the following pages.
