The foundation of worship

What is Tawhid?

Tawhid is to single out Allah in what belongs uniquely to Him: His lordship, His right to worship, and His names and attributes.

01

The meaning

Tawhid is not a slogan. It orders knowledge, worship and daily dependence on Allah.

02

Lordship

Allah alone creates, owns, provides and governs.

03

Worship

Every act of worship belongs to Allah alone.

04

Names and attributes

We affirm what Allah affirmed for Himself and what His Messenger ﷺ affirmed for Him, without distortion, denial, asking how, or likening Him to creation.
