1. Fard: Obligatory or mandatory actions in Islam that must be performed by every Muslim. Failure to fulfill a fard action is considered a sin.
Example: Performing the five daily prayers (Salah) is fard for every adult Muslim.
2. Wajib: Actions that are required to be performed in Islam, but are not as strictly obligatory as fard actions. Failure to perform a wajib action is also considered a sin.
Example: Giving Zakat (obligatory charity) is wajib for every Muslim who meets the criteria.
3. Sunnah: Actions that were performed by the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and are recommended for Muslims to follow. Performing sunnah actions brings reward, but neglecting them is not considered a sin.
Example: Praying the Sunnah prayers before or after the obligatory prayers.
4. Nafl: Voluntary actions that a Muslim can perform to earn extra reward from Allah. These actions are not obligatory or recommended by the Prophet, but are encouraged.
Example: Praying Tahajjud (night prayer) is a nafl action that can be performed by Muslims.
5. Mustahib: Actions that are preferred or recommended in Islam, but are not obligatory. Performing mustahib actions brings reward, but neglecting them is not considered a sin.
Example: Reciting Surah Al-Kahf on Fridays is a mustahib action.
6. Mubah: Actions that are permissible in Islam and neither encouraged nor discouraged. These actions are considered neutral and do not have any specific reward or sin associated with them.
Example: Eating a specific type of food that is neither recommended nor discouraged in Islam.
7. Makrooh: Actions that are disliked or discouraged in Islam, but are not sinful. Avoiding makrooh actions is recommended, but performing them does not incur a sin.
Example: Eating garlic or onions before attending the mosque is considered makrooh.
