7 major sins' explanations continues...


3) Killing without reason

Imam Jahabi r.a. mentions more than hundred major sins. But Prophet Mohamed peace be upon you focus only on the seven major sins. One of these seven would destroy all your good deeds.

The third major sin to talk about today is killing somebody without the proper reason. The philosophy of Islam is very simple and easy just to simply defend yourself. If somebody is trying to kill you then you can defend yourself.

The so-called Kings in Saudi Arabia; they steal the money of the Muslims. They steal the oil and the natural resources that belong to the Muslims in general all over the world. And there is no punishment for them. But if a Muslim from Pakistan or Egypt happen to steal something then they cut his arm in public. This is not justice, this is oppression. 

Killing is of two types: intentional or accidental. The penalty for hitting accidentally is hundred camels which is a lot of money. About 10 years ago a camel used to cost about $3000 to right know it probably cost $5000. So that's basically $500,000, which is the penalty of killing accidentally. 

4) Riba / (bank interests)
Allah declared against 2 types of people in the Quran. 1st type are those who takes Awliya (friends of Allah) as their enemies. 

Waliullah: someone who's fulfilling the Faridah (mandatory duties of Islam) and avoiding major sins. 

Hadith Qudsi: If anybody's gonna be the enemy of my wali, I will declare war against him. 

2nd type are those who involve themselves with Riba / interests. 

Quran: Baqarah: Oh who you believe, fear Allah, get rid of Riba completely. If you will not do, if you will not stop, then Allah will declare war against you.
