To have conviction in one's beliefs, one must be aware of its foundational principles and be convinced that it is the truth. Conviction is a matter of both the mind and the heart (ie. it is both a logical and emotional concept). One who is walking in a unstable ground will most probably sink right into a quicksand pit if he is not aware he is in a hazardous area (ie. no logical direction) or does not believe that he is in one (ie. no emotional direction).
This post is for Muslims, new or old, or those interested in Islam, to renew or test their conviction in Islam. To have conviction (yaqin) in Islam is essential, especially living in times where Iblis' work is everywhere, from distractions, to doubts to desires.
