Example of minor shirk:
Worshiping Allah (subhan WA tallah) - having the objective of impressing people too.
Example of major shirk:
Associating partners with Allah (subhan WA tallah) or voting in elections are examples of major shirk.
al-Shirk (polytheism) is of two kinds: major Shirk and minor Shirk. The major Shirk means to believe that Allah, The Great and Almighty has a partner: a god or Taghut (who exceeds his limits as a slave to Allah) who can manages the affairs of this universe.The major Shirk also means to worship somebody/thing with Allah, i.e. to pray, slaughter or vow for some Taghut, grave and so on.It also means to believe that similarity between Allah and His slaves in Attributes and Names or to, for example, deny some of the Divine Attributes and Names.In fact, one who commits such form of al-Shirk becomes non-Muslim, i.e. brings oneself out of the fold of Muslims.As for the minor Shirk, it is also prohibited by Sharia. Since it may lead to the major one. Examples of this Shirk include: Taking an oath by other than Allah and al-Riyaa (duplicity and performing acts for the sake of showing off and others' praise). This form of Shirk does not bring one out of the fold of Islam and Muslims, but it is a great sin.Allah knows best.
Major shirk is to Worship God not as the one and only one God but to worship God with having a son, or partner, or companion, or associate or with equivalence.
A relative minor key is the minor key with the same key signature as a particular major key, for example D minor and F major both have one flat (Bb).
The major sin of associating anything with divinity other than the one God
You get one degree particular to your major. Your transcript will indicate the minor you have completed.
They are not degrees, they are programs of study which fall under a degree type. The major is the primary field you are studying for. The minor can be taken in a number of areas to enhance your major program of study. For example, One might have a major of International Studies. To enhance their degree, they may minor in a language (Spanish, German, French etc.) The minor does not have the credit requirements that the major has.
You can take a minor in Spanish with any major. However, The major and minor system is really particular to bachelors degrees.
The word shirk orginated from "Shirakat" that means to combine two things. in real sense it is taken as joining someone with the GOD. No one can be joined or attributed as GOD and id some one does so he commits SHIRK which is a SIN of Major nature and is a clear contradiction to the fact that Thee is only one GOD and no one else has the contols and the deivne power that almighty has as part of the true belief...
Each major key has a relative minor key and vice versa. For example a key signature with one sharp can refer to either the G major or the e minor keys. For major keys there is only one scale type. For minor keys there are 3: pure, harmonic, and melodic. In pure(natural) minor none of the scale degrees are altered. In harmonic minor the seventh scale degree is raised half a step. In melodic minor the seventh and the sixth scale degrees are raised half a step, ascending and returned to their pure minor descending.
The relative key is the one with the same key signature. For C major, it's A minor.
The minor scale is different from a major scale because the third, sixth, and seventh are one half step lower than a major scale. For example, a C major scale is C, D, E, F, G, A, B; a C minor scale is C, D, Eb, F, G, Ab, Bb. The Eb, Ab, and Bb are one half step lower, which gives the minor scale its distinct sound.
B flat Major has 2 flats and G Minor has 2 flats.
