How do you save yourself from them - a simple effective method I use for myself most of the time is thinking of doing good instead of protecting myself from the bad. By doing this I automatically protect myself Alhumdolillah.

So instead of thinking how to avoid shirk - think how can you testify more to the oneness of Allah etc etc.

If you need any more help on this let me know and I'd be happy to help you out in more detail.

Assala mu alaiqum ! my dear brother " Mohammad Aseem "

Thank you very much !

But its quite a big list . But your answer is really nice about safe my self from them .

So now arise a new question that , What are the big good deeds which I can do to protect my self from big Sins ?

There is 100 specific cases for people who have earned the curses of Allah and his Messenger Muhamad (SA).

Asides from Shirk (Ascribing partners to Allah), one of the worst sins is Bidah- innovation.

Imam Shafi (RA) once said:

"That a servent meets Allah with every kind of sin except Shirk is better than meeting Him up any of the INNOVATED beliefs".

Hope this helps.

So now arise a new question that , What are the big good deeds which I can do to protect my self from big Sins ?

Big good deeds can be anything aslong as it is done with the Niyet of pleasing Allah Ta'ala alone.

E.g. Pilgrimage for the sake of Allah Ta'ala (Hajj and Umrah), building a mosque, writing a book of guidance, rearing pious children, finishing the Qur'an and as soon as it is finished begin again immediately.

In order to save oneself from the big sins, one must first know what these sins are. After inquiring as to the action which Allah hates, you make 2 rakat of nafl, make dua to Allah Ta'ala and ask Him for help as to stop yourself from doing bad deeds.

Also, another way to remove even the slightest chance of commiting even minor sins is to follow the complete Sunnah of Prophet Muhamad (SA). For every instance, it has been recorded, and so, if any problem arises we first ask Allah, then we look into the Qur'an or Authentic Ahadith.


Salaam.
