CHAPTER
No: 1
At- Tauhid (The Oneness of Allah)
Allah the Almighty said:
"And I (Allah) created not the
Jinns and men except they should worship Me (Alone)."
(51:56)
And He stated:
"And verily, We have sent among
every Ummah (community, nation) a Messenger
(proclaiming): 'Worship Allah (Alone),
and avoid (or keep away from) Taghut (all false deities
etc. i.e. do not worship Taghut besides
Allah).' "
(16:36)
And He said:
“And your Lord has decreed that you
worship none but Him. And that you be dutiful
to your parents. If one of them or both
of them attain old age in your life, say not to them
a word of disrespect, nor shout at them
but address them in terms of honour. And lower
unto them the wing of submission and
humility through mercy, and say: 'My Lord! Bestow on
them Your Mercy as they did bring me up
when I was small.' "
(17:23, 24)
And He said:
"Worship Allah and join none with
Him in worship."
(4:36)
And He said:
"Say (O Muhammad May the peace and
blessing of Allah be upon him ): Come, I will recite
what your Lord has prohibited you from:
Join not anything in worship with Him; be good and
dutiful to your parents; kill not your
children because of poverty -We provide sustenance for you
and for them; come not near to shameful
sins (illegal sexual intercourse, etc.) whether committed
openly or secretly, and kill not anyone
whom Allah has forbidden, except for a just cause
(according to Islamic law), This He has
commanded you that you may understand. And come not
near to the orphan's property, except
to improve it, until he (or she) attains the age of full
strength; and give full measure and
full weight with justice. We burden not any person, but that
which he can bear. And whenever you
give your word (i.e. judge between men or give evidence,
etc.), say the truth even if a near
relative is concerned, and fulfill the Covenant of Allah. This He
commands you, that you may' remember. And
verily, this is My Straight Path, so follow it, and
follow not (other) paths, for they will
separate you away from His Path. This He has ordained for
you that you may become Al-Muttaqun
(the pious)."
(6: 151-153)
Ibn Mas'ud (May Allah be pleased with
him) said:
Whoever wishes to ascertain the very
will of Prophet Muhammad (May the peace and
blessing of Allah be upon him) on which
the Prophet has put his seal, let him read the Statement
of Allah:
"Say (O Muhammad (May the peace
and blessing of Allah be upon him) ): Come, I will
recite what your Lord has prohibited
you from: Join not anything in worship with Him... (up to)
...And verily, this is My Straight
Path."
It is narrated that Mu'adh bin Jabal
(May Allah be pleased with him) said:
I was riding behind the Prophet (May
the peace and blessing of Allah be upon him) on a
donkey and he said to me "O
Mu'adh, do you know what is the right of Allah on his slaves and
what is the right of the slaves upon
Allah?" I responded: "Allah and His Messenger know best."
He continued, "The Right of Allah
upon His slaves is to worship Him Alone and never to
associate anything with him. The right
of slaves upon Him is not to punish any person who does
not associate anything with Him."
I said: "O Allah's Messenger, may I not give the glad tidings to
the people?" He replied: "No.
Do not inform them lest they rely on (this promise and lapse in
their service to Him)”
[The above Hadith is mentioned in two
Sahih Books (Al-Bukhari and
Muslim)].
