The smooth workings of the universe point to one supreme power.

Orderliness and consistency of the universe's systems suggests one power.

Tauheed is the fundamental belief in the oneness of Allah, meaning He is singular, without partners, and the only one worthy of worship.

Tauheed is the cornerstone of Islam. Without believing in the oneness of Allah, one cannot be considered a Muslim.

The Kalma is the foundational statement of faith in Islam, encompassing two parts: 'La ilaha il Allah' (There is no god but Allah) and 'Muhammad ur rasool Allah' (Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah).

'La ilaha il Allah' translates to 'There is no god but Allah.' It declares that Allah is the only true God, rejecting the existence of any other deities.

'Muhammad ur rasool Allah' conveys the message that Muhammad is the final prophet sent by Allah to guide humanity.

Tauheed forms the foundation of the Kalma's first part, while Risalat is the basis of the second part. Both are intertwined in affirming the truth of Islam.

Surah Ikhlas in the Quran is a concise and powerful chapter dedicated to explaining Tauheed. It emphasizes Allah's absolute oneness and lack of any partners.

The consistent patterns and order in the universe, like the sun rising in the east and night following day, point to a single, supreme power governing everything.

If there were multiple powers controlling the universe, it would likely lead to chaos and disorder rather than the observed harmony.

'Sifats' refers to Allah's unique attributes or qualities that make Him distinct and unmatched.

'Khaliq' is one of Allah's attributes, signifying Him as the Creator of all existence, including mankind.

'Raziq' is Allah's attribute as the Provider, meaning He sustains and nourishes all living beings.

'Muhyi' means the Giver of Life and 'Mumeet' means the Giver of Death. Both these attributes highlight Allah's absolute control over life and death.

'Malik' translates to Master or Owner. It signifies Allah's absolute dominion and ownership over the entire universe.

'Aleem' refers to Allah's attribute of being All-Knowing. He possesses complete knowledge of everything.

'Samad' emphasizes Allah's self-sufficiency, meaning He has no needs and relies on nothing outside of Himself.

'Baseer' denotes Allah's attribute of being All-Seeing. He can observe everything, even our most hidden actions.

'Same' means All-Hearing. Allah hears every sound, whether spoken aloud or in our hearts.

'Noor' means Light. It signifies Allah's attribute of being the source of all light, both physical and spiritual.
