Ahkaam
The singular form of the word ahkaam is hukm, which means ruling. Any action in Islam falls within the following five categories:
Waajib (obligatory):
Actions under this category are obligatory on all Muslims who will consequently be rewarded if they do them or may be puniched if they neglect them. Fasting in the month of Ramadan is an example of such actions.
Haraam (prohibited):
Actions under this category are prohibited and include such things as stealing and lying. The one who commits any of them may be punished for it.
Mustahabb (recommended):
Actions under this category are recommended and include such things as performing two rakáhs after the Maghrib prayer. Those who perform such actions will be rewarded, and those who leave them will not be punished.
Makrooh (detested):
Actions under this category are detested and include such things as sleeping on the stomach. This is the opposite of a recommendation. Avoiding the makrooh counts as a good deed, while doing it does not count as a bad deed.
Mubaah (permissible):
Actions under this category are permitted by Islam but have no religious significance, such as eating fish and chips or lamb curry. We have the choice to do them ore not.
The person´s intention, however, can change to waajib, mustahabb, makrooh or haraam. Other things could also change the position of the mubaah. For example, any mubaah becomes haraam if it is proven harmful, and any action that is necessary to fulfil a waajib is also waajib.
Those rulings which are waajib, or fard, (obligatory) are of two types:
Fardáyn (individual obligation)
Which is the imperative duty on every Muslim who is mukallah (morally responsible), baaligh (mature) and àaqil (sane), like the five daily prayers and the fasting of Ramadan.
Fard kifaayah (collective obligation):
Which is the imperative duty that if carried out by some people in a locality absolves all others of their responsibility.
But if it is carried out by none involves the whole population in sin. An example ot this is the learning of the various branches of Islamic knowledge and useful industries.
