1.1 Background of the Study.

All praise is due to Allah the Most High, the Creator of man, the Law giver, He who guides to the Straight path which leads to salvation for those who follow it and to the hellfire, for those who deny it, peace and blessings of Allah be upon His noble Prophet whom we are commanded to follow his footsteps. His companions and those who follow them to the day of Judgment. Islam is a religion and way of life based on the commandment of Allah contained in the Holy Qur'an and Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W.) and a complete way of life that encompasses all aspects of muslimendeavourof which the issue of judgment is a type.

It is a path through which mankind reaches a mutual existence with Allah, himself and the rest of mankind3.

Islam as a religion, comprehensively deals with all aspects of life. Its rules and regulations are based on the commandments of Allah as contained in the Qur'an and Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) Every Muslim is under obligation to fashion his entire life in accordance with the dictates of the Qur'an and Sunnah....
