64. According to the grade arrange the following words in order. Mumin, Muhisin, Muslim.

بِسْمِ ٱللَّٰهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِٱلرَّحِيمِ

Answer: The order is:

1. Muslim

2. Mumin

3. Muhsin.

Muslim is a term for a person who submits or surrenders obediently their will to One Allah, the Lord of the Universe. This is the first level of Iman. It is concerned with heart. It fulfils the minimum requirement to enter into Jannah.

There are countless examples given in the Quran of those who are Muslims:

Prophet Noah (AS) said "I have been commanded to be one of the Muslims." (10:72)

"Ibrahim (AS) was neither a Jew nor a Christian, but he was a true Muslim Hanifa" (3:67).

"But We found not there any household of the Muslims except one [i.e. Lut (AS) and his two daughters]. (51:36)

Sulaiman (AS) in his letter to Queen of Sheba wrote, "Be you not exalted against me, but come to me as Muslims' (27:31)

Sulaiman (AS) acknowledged his own state as "Knowledge was bestowed on us before her, and we were Muslims." (27:42)

When death approached Yaqub (AS) he said unto his sons, "What will you worship after me?" They said, "We shall worship your Ilah, the Ilah of your fathers, Ibrahim (AS), Isma'il (AS), Ishaque (AS), One Ilah and to Him we submit as Muslims." (2:133).

Al-Hawariun (disciples) of Isa (AS) said: "We are the helpers of Allah; we believe in Allah, and bear witness that we are Muslims. " (3:52).

Yusuf (AS) prays to his Lord, "The (only) Creator of the heavens and the earth! You are my Wali in this world and in the Hereafter, and cause me to die as a Muslim" (12:101)

Even the magicians of Firaun prayed, "Our Lord! pour out on us patience, and cause us to die as Muslims." (7:126).

The two terms 'Muslim' and 'Mumin' have been used distinctly in the Quranic text.  One may be a Muslim but may not yet be a 'Mumin'. Unfortunately, the term 'believer' in English translation is vague. For example, the Quran says:

The Bedouins say: "We believe." Say: "You believe not but you only say, 'We have surrendered (in Islam),' for Faith has not yet entered your hearts. But if you obey Allah and His Messenger (), He will not decrease anything in reward for your deeds."(49:14).

Allah says in Quran about Mumin: 

◆ Successful indeed are the Mumin.

◆ Those who offer their Salath with all solemnity and full submissiveness.        

◆ And those who turn away from Al-Laghw (dirty, false, evil vain talk).

◆ And those who pay the Zakat.

◆ And those who guard their chastity.

◆ Those who are faithfully true to their Amanat (all the duties which Allah has ordained, honesty, moral responsibility and trusts etc.) and to their covenants;

◆ And those who strictly guard their Salath (at their fixed stated hours)." (Mumenun, 23:1-9).

So a mumin show iman in action. This is a little higher level than a Muslim. The chances of entering Jannah is more for mumin.

Muhisin - a higher level believer:

Muhisin is a good-doer. He prays hard, do good, fear Allah much, spend his wealth for Allah's cause, he strives hard, led into right path by Allah and get the love of Allah and rewarded by Allah by both the world's.

Allah gives in Surah Al- Maida, two important virtues of Muhisin, one being the fear of Allah and the other in performing good deeds of:

"Those who believe and do righteous good deeds, there is no sin on them for what they ate (in the past), if they fear Allah (by keeping away from His forbidden things), and believe and do righteous good deeds, and again fear Allah and believe, and once again fear Allah and do good deeds with Ihsan (perfection)." (5:93)

Allah loves Al-Muhsinun وَاللَّهُ يُحِبُّ الْمُحْسِنِينَ because:   

  ● they submit their face to Allah (2:112),

  ● perform As-Salath (11:114)

  ● invoke the Lord with humility and in secret (7: 55)

  ● invoke Him with fear and hope (7: 56)

  ● will be patient (11:115)

  ● used to sleep but little by night praying, with fear and hope (51:17)

  ● ask for forgiveness, in the hours before dawn, (51:18)

  ● give their properties to beggar, and the Mahrum (the poor who does not ask) (51:19)

  ● spend in prosperity and in adversity,

  ● repress anger,

  ● and pardon men; (3:134)

  ● spend in the Cause of Allah (i.e. Jihad of all kinds, etc.) and strive hard (2:195).

All says, “Such shall have no fear, nor shall they grieve.” (2:112). “Their good deeds remove the evil deeds (i.e. small sins)”. Allah reward the Muhsinun (77: 44) in this world, and also give the excellent reward of the Hereafter. (3:148).

Ibrahim (AS) with ihisan fulfilled the dream by sincerely attempting the sacrifice of his son and thus raised to Muhsinun level (37:105). And Allah bestowed upon him Ishaque (AS) and Ya'qub (AS), each of them He guided, to right path.

Because of his ihisan and his patience in prison Allah gave full authority to Yusuf (AS) in Egypt, to take possession, as when or where he likes (12:56). He came to such an extent that he was addressed by his own brothers (12: 78) and by co-prisoners (12:36), as Muhsinun. 

Similarly, Allah guided Nuh (AS), and among his progeny Dawud (AS), Sulaiman (AS), Ayub (AS), Yusuf (AS), Musa (AS), and Harun (AS) as the Muhisinun. (6: 84).

Allah’s Messenger ﷺ said: “The strong believer is better and more beloved to Allah than the weak believer, although both are good. Strive to attain that which will benefit you and seek the help of Allah and do not feel helpless.” [Sahih Muslim Hadith: 2664].
