The Importance of Tawheed
Allah says in the Quran:
"Say: Is it other than Allah that you order me to worship, O ignorant ones? And it has already been revealed to you and to those before you that if you should associate partners with Allah, your deeds would surely become worthless, and you would surely be among the losers."
Islam: The Final Religion for All of Humanity
The religion of Islam is the last religion sent by Allah the Lord for the guidance of the people who will come until the Day of Judgment. The religion of Islam connects the lost humanity with its Creator and Master.
The religion of Islam is a religion of justice, a religion of nature, in which the message has been given to the people that they should worship one God. May the Imam of the Prophets, the Imam of the Universe, Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah, be sacrificed — those who brought this religion to their Ummah, brought it to humanity. Humanity has tried all the ways of oppression on the Beloved, but the Messenger of Allah gave humanity only one lesson till the last moments.
The Core Message: Lā ilāha illallāh
Say, there is no God but Allah. Believe in one Allah. The Allah who is your Creator, the Allah who is your Master, the Allah who is your Provider.
The One who gave you sustenance in your mother's womb — recognize that Creator and Master.
The Warning Against Shirk
It has been revealed to you, O Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, and to those before you, and to all the Prophets and their communities: if you associate partners with Allah, your deeds will be utterly destroyed.
Allah says: if they had associated partners with Allah, if they had worshipped someone other than Allah, if they had considered someone other than Allah to be the Creator and Master, if they had made someone other than Allah a partner in His attributes and worship — then He would have destroyed their deeds, and their whole lives would have been in ruin.
Worship Belongs to Allah Alone
We have been given the same message, and we have been commanded: when we perform worship of Allah, when we prostrate and pray to Allah, when we bow down, when we give charity for Allah, and when we sacrifice for Allah — all of it must be for Allah alone. This is Allah's right: that whoever worships, worships Allah alone.
