Monotheism

Tawhid (Arab.: توحيد‎, tawḥīd, meaning "unification or oneness of God as per Islam", (also romanized as Tawheed, Tawhid, Tauheed or Tevhid) is the indivisible oneness concept of monotheism in Islam. Tawhid is one of the basic, fundamental tenets of Islam, which means, first of all, the denial of polytheism (shirk), expressed in the formula “there is no deity but God”.

Tawhid is monotheism. This is the recognition that God is the only Creator - the Lord of all that exists. Only He is worthy of worship and possesses such attributes and qualities that no one possesses. Tawhid is the foundation of the Islamic religion, its main component.

The main principle of the doctrine of Islamic monotheism is the assertion that there is only one God - Arab. - Allah - the Creator of all things. All processes in the Universe and the universe are created only by Him, through His Word, the executors of which are angels. The Islamic doctrine of monotheism rejects the Christian concept of God's hypostases expressed in the Trinity. They also reject claims that supposedly God can have sons or daughters, as Christians do, considering the prophet Jesus to be the son of God. The assertions of the Jews that the Creator favors only one chosen people are also rejected.

An integral part of the Islamic doctrine of monotheism is the need to serve God and perform acts of worship to Him. Service and worship should not be performed to anyone or anything other than God. Acts of service are not only specific religious rites, but also all life, all human actions, which must be inspired by sincere faith in the Creator.
