Tawhid — The Oneness of Allah

Suggest edit

Tawhid is the most fundamental concept in Islam: the absolute oneness of Allah.

Three Categories

  • Tawhid ar-Rububiyyah: Oneness of Lordship. Allah alone is the Creator, Sustainer, and Disposer of all affairs.
  • Tawhid al-Uluhiyyah: Oneness of Worship. All worship must be directed to Allah alone.
  • Tawhid al-Asma wa's-Sifat: Oneness of Names and Attributes. Allah's names and attributes are unique and cannot be compared to creation.

Evidence

"Say: He is Allah, the One. Allah, the Eternal Refuge. He neither begets nor is born. Nor is there to Him any equivalent." (Quran 112:1-4)
