The Oneness Of Allah Azza wa Jal, And The Glorification Of Allah



Allah says :
'This Quran has been revealed to you, to warn you and whoever comes toyou. Do you whitness that there are other gods besides Allah. Say, I do notwhitness that. There is only one god and I am free from what youassociate'.

'They took their priests and bishops as gods other than Allah, and theytook also the son of Maryam. They have not been commanded except toworship one god, there is no god except Allah, praise be to him and Praisebe to Allah of what they associate'.

'Don't say trinity (three). Stop, it would be better for you, Allah is onlyone god, praise be to Him, that he may have a son'.

'Do they take gods from the Earth, if there were gods other than Allah inthe Heavens and in the Earth, it would have been corrupted, so praise be toAllah the Lord of the throne which they describe, He is not asked aboutwhat He does but they will be asked. Although they make gods other thanAllah, they bring no proof. This is the message of what I have and themessage of those who came before me, but most of them deny the truthand turn away. We have not sent before you any messenger except with themessage that there is no god except Allah so worship me'.

And Al-Bukhari has nararated that Omayah bin Yahya reported Ibn Abbas,he said ; 'When the Prophet (SAW) sent S'ad Ibn Muad to Yemen he told him :You will come in to contact with the people of the Book, the first thing you call them to is to wittness the oneness of Allah, and when they accept this then tell them that Allah has made it a duty on them to pray five times a day'. So this hadith is an evidence that the first thing a muslimhas to do in his D'awa is to call for the oneness of Allah then he calls forthe rules of Islam. And it also proves that saying that Allah has a son isexactly the same as saying there are other gods besides Allah. This prooves that the proof on unifying Allah is a rational proof and not a narrated proof. And any other evidences which were narrated in the Book and the Sunnah upon oneness, they are just confirmation of what has been proved by mind and they are also explanation to the meaning of oneness. And though Islam is the religion of oneness, it is better than other religions because the jews say Ozayr is the son of Allah, and the christians say Jesus is the son of Allah and therefore this is anassociaton with Allah, and the other idolystic religions make a lot of clear associations. This doesn't mean that the oneness of Allah Tala has been brought to the Prophet Mohammad (SAW) alone and not to the other messengers, but rather the oneness was brought by all the messengers, Allah Ta'la says ;

'We have not sent before you any messengers, except with the messagethat there is no god except Allah'.

'We have revealed to you, as We have revealed to Ibrahim, Musa and Isa'.

What is it ? It is the Tawhid, the oneness, because at the end of the verse says:

'Establish the Deen, don't seperate in it, it is becomes a great responsibility on the association on the Mushriks that you call them to oneness'.

So many verses came on the subject of oneness, because after the message of the Prophet Mohammad (SAW) the dissociation became general and wide spread in the Earth, so it was very necessary that many verses be revealed to the people about the oneness. The existence in Allah isinstinctive......

The rejection of Taghoot and the belief in Allaah is not only done through belief, but also through actions, such as meaning through Jihaad fee Sabeelillaah, meaning fighting (qitaal) in the Path of Allaah, and that is the best, because you are risking your life for Allaah alone, you know, exposing yourself to death, for whom? Only Allaah. True love for Allaah is best represented therefore by fighting in His Sake, to establish His Religion, Islaam, to establish His Laws, and to kick out the vile Disbelievers like Amreeka and Britaan who are massacring millions of Muslims in Iraaq and Afghanistan, just as al-Qaaidah is doing, may Allaah preserve them.

Actually, the Ummah, right from the time of Adam to Noah, was one, worshipping Allah the right way and form, but, as time moves on, people started clinging to one pious man and the other for the purpose of seeking "closeness" to Allah. The final results was that these same people left and their generations presumed their predescessors were worshipping these pious saaliheen, whereupon they continue to worship them as well.

This was the main reason for sending Prophet Noah (AS) and those who came after him. In the Holy Qur'an, Allah said:

"Mankind was one single nation, and Allah sent Messengers with glad tidings and warnings; and with them He sent the Book in truth, to judge between people in matters wherein they differed. . ." (Q2: 213)

According to the authentic recitation of Abdullahi bn Mas'oud on this particular verse, the translation goes like this:

"Mankind was one single nation, but they disagreed, and Allah sent messengers with glad tidings and warnings. . ."

The above verse equally corroborated the Prophet's saying that, "the fisrt disagreement in religion is on tawheed." This makes the knowledge of tawheed the most fundamental aspects of the deen. One must therefore know the true nature of Allah and His signs, before worshipping him.
