What Is Tawhid

• Tawhid is the Islam's central and single most important


concept, upon which a Muslim's entire religious adherence
rests. It unequivocally holds that Allah is one and single.
Why Is Tawhid Important?
• The importance of Tawhid can be seen in the hadeeth narrated by Anas where
Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) said that Allah says: “O son of Adam, if
you were to come to Me with sins that are close to filling the Earth, and you
would then meet Me without ascribing any partners with Me, I would certainly
[also] bring to you forgiveness close to filling it [the Earth].” (Al-Tirmidhi)
• This hadeeth explains the great benefit of having Tawhid. Allah has promised to
forgive those people who die whilst believing or worshipping only Allah. This
means that all those people who have Tawhid will go to Paradise. However,
innovations (in religious acts) and major sins can decrease the quality of a
person’s belief in Tawhid.
