We often hear talk of monotheism or theOneness of Allah, especially at khotba or science conferences. But this notion represents the very essence of Islam. We must therefore master the various points concerning it. Shaykh Muhammad Al-Wusâbî's Tawhid lessons are an excellent way to learn the basics.
Tawhid lessons introduce you to Allah's right over His servants
Tawhid represents the element by which one becomes a Muslim, the one that differentiates the faithful from the non-believers. This Arabic term means worshipping only One Lord. This precept therefore runs counter to all polytheistic acts. It is not limited to belief, but also concerns the actions of members.
In The 4 Rules, Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdelwahhal explains that the Arabs at the time of the Prophet recognized that Allah is the Creator, the Giver of life and death, sustenance... Despite this, they worshipped statutes. And to defend their position, they claimed that these deities were only meant to bring them closer to Allah. Despite this argument, Allah still called them disbelievers.
In the Tawhid lessons, you will discover several chapters, all relating to pure monotheism. He who perfects his Tawhid obtains Allah's pleasure and access to Paradise. But this ultimate reward requires effort in this world. And to satisfy Allah, we must learn Islam, in order to know His expectations.
Lessons of Tawhid: a practical guide
In the Koran, Allah reveals the reason for our existence. He created jinn and mankind for one and the same purpose: to worship Him and acknowledge His Oneness. Claiming to be monotheistic is not enough. How many Muslims pray five times a day and pronounce the shahada, but commit shirk? And very often, they are unaware of this transgression.
The author of this book has therefore set out to explain monotheism in 76 easy-to-understand Tawhid lessons. In each lesson, he cites verses from the Koran and hadith to back up the information provided. He also discusses the notion of shirk, which is opposed to Tawhid. Whoever crosses this red line leaves Islam and exposes himself to Allah's punishment.
This book is beneficial for everyone. If you're new to Islam, you'll learn the basics. Non-Muslims seeking the path of truth could also benefit from the knowledge contained in this book. We recommend this book not only for the information it contains, but also for its structure. The author sets out ideas, then justifies them concisely with dalil.
How to read this book
You can read one lesson a day, for example. Take time to meditate on what you read. If you're having trouble with a chapter, don't hesitate to ask someone at a more advanced level.
Tawhid lessons provide you with the clarification you need to understand the basics of Islam. Unlike the secular sciences, Tawhid is about religion. It will therefore have an impact on your faith and religiosity. For this reason, we recommend that you choose your Islamic books carefully.
