The Arabic word taghut or ''taaghoot'' (ar. طاغوت, ṭāġūt, pl. ṭawāġīt) means to "cross the limits, overstep boundaries," or "to rebel."〔Understanding the Islamic Scripture 2007 Mustansir Mir p.55〕 In Islamic theology, the word refers to idolatry or to worship anything except Allah. Taghut also denotes one who exceed their limits. The first stage of error is ''fisq'' (i.e. disobeying God without denying that one should obey Him), the second is ''kufr'', (i.e. rejection of the very idea that one should obey God).〔Arabic Dictionary of Islamic Terms〕 The last stage would be not only to rebel against God but also impose their rebellion against the will of God upon others. Those who reach this stage are taghut.〔The Pure Islam project〕〔(SunnahOnline. PDF )〕 ==In the Qur'an== This is taken to refer to an actual event in which a group of disbelieving Meccans went to two eminent Jewish figures for counsel on the truth of Muhammad's teachings and were told that the pagans were more rightly guided than Muslims.〔See Abdel Haleem Oxford Translation p.87 notes〕 The Arabic ''taghut'' is variously interpreted to refer to idols, a specific tyrant, an oracle, or an opponent of the Prophet.〔See Abdel Haleem Oxford Translation of the Qur'an p.89〕〔Abdel Haleem Oxford Translation p.91〕 Again, this term ''taghut'' has been used here. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Taghut」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
