Teaching Iman Before Teaching the Qur'an - Sheikh Ibn Baz السؤال: ما معنى قول الصحابي: "كنا نُؤتى الإيمان قبل القرآن"؟ Question: What is the meaning of the saying of the Sahābī (Companion of the Prophet ﷺ) "We were given Imān before the Qur'ān"? الجواب: معناه: الإيمان بالله، يعني: الإيمان بالله وتوحيده، Answer: Its meaning: Imān in Allah, meaning - Imān in Allah and making Tawhīd of Him. فهم يُعلَّمون ويدعوهم النبيُّ ﷺ ويُؤمنون بالله ورسوله قبل أن يتعلَّموا، قبل أن يقرؤوا القرآن، So, they were taught, the Prophet ﷺ called them, and they believed in Allah and His Messenger before they learnt - before they read/recited the Qur’ān. فإن قول "لا إله إلا الله" هذا هو مبدأ الإيمان، النبيُّ يقول لهم: قولوا: لا إله إلا الله تُفْلِحوا ويدعوهم إلى هذا، So, indeed the saying: Lā ilāha Illa Allah, this is the starting point of Imān. The Prophet said to them (in the meaning of which), "Say: Lā Ilāha Illa Allah you will succeed," and he called them towards this. ويُعلِّم مَن جاء مسلمًا حتى يقول: "لا إله إلا الله"، He taught whoever came as a Muslim until he said " Lā ilāha Illa Allah." ثم يتعلم القرآنَ بعد ذلك، يتعلم ما تيسر منه: كالفاتحة وما تيسر معها. Then, he would learn the Qur'ān after that. He would learn what is easy from it: like Al-Fatihah and whatever is easy along with it.
