[IslamCity] The Fundamentals of Tawheed (Islamic Monotheism)
The Fundamentals of Tawheed (Islamic
Monotheism)
Abu Ameenah Bilal Philips
The Muslim scholar Abu Ameenah Philips has kindly agreed to let
MSA-USC display three chapters (1, 2, and 10) from his book "The
Fundamentals of Tawheed (Islamic Monotheism)". This book is highly
recommended reading for those who would like to learn about the basis
of Islam: there is no being worthy of worship except Allah (God), and
Allah is Absolutely One and Absolutely Unique. We note also that a Muslim is
further obligated to accept the Prophet Muhammad (saws) as Allah's final prophet to
humanity.

{Invite (mankind, O Muhammad ) to the Way of your Lord (i.e. Islam) with wisdom (i.e. with the Divine Inspiration and the Qur'an) and fair preaching, and argue with them in a way that is better. Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone astray from His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided.} (Holy Quran-16:125)
{And who is better in speech than he who [says: "My Lord is Allah (believes in His Oneness)," and then stands straight (acts upon His Order), and] invites (men) to Allah's (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: "I am one of the Muslims."} (Holy Quran-41:33)
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "By Allah, if Allah guides one person by you, it is better for you than the best types of camels." [al-Bukhaaree, Muslim]
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) also said, "Whoever calls to guidance will have a reward similar to the reward of the one who follows him, without the reward of either of them being lessened at all." [Muslim, Ahmad, Aboo Daawood, an-Nasaa'ee, at-Tirmidhee, Ibn Maajah]
