What you must believe about your Creator - Kalamullah.Com

So, Allah used His Oneness in Lordship as a proof to establish that Healone deserves to be worshiped.The slave cannot be a Muwahhid (one who believes in Tawheed in thecorrect manner) by affirming Tawheed ar-Rububiyah alone - until hedeclares Tawheed al-Uluhiyah and establishes it. The Mushrikeenused to proclaim Allah's Oneness in Rububiyah but it did not qualifythem to enter Islam. The Messenger of Allah fought them while theywere declaring that Allah is the Creator and Provider, the One, Whogives life and death as Allah says, "If you ask them who created them,they will surely say, 'Allah.''[Soorah Zukhruf (43): 87]"Indeed if you ask them, 'Who has created the heavens and theearth?' They will surely say, 'The All-Mighty, the All-Knower createdthem." [Soorah az-Zukhruf (43): 9]"Say, 'Who provides for you from the sky and from the earth? Or whoowns hearing and sight? And who brings out the living from the deadand brings out the dead from the living? And who disposes theaffairs?' They will say, 'Allah.'" [Soorah Yunus (10): 31]Plentiful similar verses can be found in the Qur'an. He, who claimsthat Tawheed is to affirm the Existence of Allah or declare that Allahis the Creator and the One, Who disposes the affairs of the Universe,and restricts himself to this definition - then he does not know thereality of Tawheed to which the Messenger called. Because he hashalted at the affair, which necessitates (i.e., Tawheed ar-Rubibiyah)and he has abandoned what it necessitates (i.e., Tawheed al-Uluhiyah) or he has stopped at the proof and abandoned what itproves."
