Why We Focus on al-Tawhīd



Why We Focus on al-Tawhīd

Ibn al-Qayyim al-Jawziyyah (رحمه الله) states: “Every Sūrah (chapter) in the  Qur’an consists of al-Tawhīd. Rather, we  say, every verse in the Qur’an consists of al-Tawhīd, evincing it and calling to it. As the Qur’an either details Allah’s Names, Attributes, and Actions, which is al-Tawhīd al-‘Ilmī, al-Khabrī; or it calls to His worship Alone, without ascribing  partners to Him, and renounces the worship of anything besides Him, and that is al-Tawhīd al-Irādī, al-Talabī; or it commands [good] or forbids [evil], and these are the rights of al-Tawhīd; or it informs of Allah’s Generosity to the people of Tawhīd and obedience, His dealings with them in the worldly life, and His blessings awaiting them in the afterlife, and this is the reward of al-Tawhīd; or it informs of the people of Shirk, and His punishment of them in this life and severe torment He has prepared for them in the next. This concerns the one who violates His Tawhīd. Thus,the whole of the Qur’an pertains to Tawhīd: its rights and its reward,as well as the evil affair of Shirk, its people, and their recompense.”
