Tawheed

Aslam alikum . All praises are for Allaah and i seek His refuge against all evils.... hidden and visible .

The topic which i present today is of the most importent nature ....it is the call of every Messenger from Hazarat Noah to Hazrat Mohammed {S} ...we must realize that "Iblees" exists just like us ...and Allaah the Exalted has given "Iblees" permission till the day which is only known to Allaah himself . Iblees causes mischief and spreads evil....iblees has an army of his followers ......and their main and prime mission is to make people do "Shirk" and his sole effort runs on on principle that how to convince menkind to share others in worship with Allaah the Exalted .

When we write or talk about Islam we are suppose to move on with solid words and with "Daleel" and that we can only do when we relate the issues and get and quote answers from Quran and Sunnah.

Strange are books and writings ...and strange are pages on which people talk about religion and they dont quote and refer the Quran and sunnah . We all know that the most Truthful speech is Quran and the best guidence is Quran and Sunnah .

Tauheed and its kinds . Tauheed is of three main kinds (1) belif in Allaah alone as the Lord and creator of all the universe (tauheed al ruboobyiah). (2) Tauheed and belif in absolute uniqueness of Allaahs name and attributes(Tuaheed al-asmaa wa al_sifaat) (3) The belif in and practice of dedicating all acts of worship to Allaah and Allaah alone (tauheed al -uloohiyya or tauheed al - ibaadah). All three are essential to make a pesron muslims and a believer.

Tauheed al RuboobiyyahThe no 1 is of great importence and is understood almost by all the humens of all times . if you ask any one ...believer or non believer ..mostly they know about this kind of Tauheed and they respond properly

Allaah the Exalted says in quran " Say: who provides you from the sky and the earth ?Or who owns hearing and sight ? And who brings out the living form the dead and the dead from the living ? and who disposes the affairs ? They will say Allaah ' Say ' will you not be afarid of Allahs punishment? """ (Yoonus 31)

Now the kind of tauheed we just talked about obove is the main kind. I was reading a book which is written by Sheikh Ibn Abdul Wahhab ....his concern about this kind is not much and he says that this Tauheed is still recognized and almost every one will answer the same as told by Allaah in Quran ....as such used to be answers of non believers of that time .Allaa talks about this this kind of tauheed at so many places Allaaha says in quran " And when harm touches you upon sea ,those taht you call upon vanish from you except Him (Allaah alone). But when he brings you safe to land, you turn away from Him.And man is ever ungrateful." Sura al -israa67.

If you today ask the claimers of religion the question as Allaah the Exalted asked the non believers the answers will exactly be the same . The point is that they all will agree to the kind of Tauheed we discussing under this banner but when you will come to other forms of Tauheed they will sway and they will turn away ....they will forget the Islam and they will respond like nopn believers and the "Kafirs" of all times.

Lets talk about Tauheed al-Ibadaah which means devoting all kinds of worship to Allaah alone .Asking and believing Allaah alone considreing Him as the disposer of All Affairs and fearing Him alone and in resut worshipping Him and Him alone . Allaah the Exalted says in Quran : "I created not the jin and mankind except that they should worship Me alone" al Dharriyyat 56 .

The difference between Tauheed al-Raboobiyyah and Tauheed al-Ibaadah

Sheikh ibn Abdul wahab has so beautifully distinguished the difference...he says"if one were to say to you ,What is the difference between these two?Say Tauhhed Rubobiyyah is concerned with actions of Lord e.g creating ,sustaining giving life, sending water from skies,giving death{ all these are attributed to Allaah alone } now Tauheed al-ullohiyyah or Tauheed al -Ibaadah is concerned with your deeds as servent of Allaah such as suplication , fear ,hope,trust ,repentence,longing

taking of oaths,seeking help,and other forms of worship which must be directly to Allaah alone.

Now Ibn abdul Wahab raised a voice first and than did a Jehad against those who did not believed in 2nd type of Tauheed . They believed in Allaah but they feared others . If we see today in our lands every one believes in Allaah but is seeking help and is fearing the graves more . The suplication is done from dead and the love which we should have for Allaah is done to others .So dont we need a Jehad in our lands? Are we not suppose to raise voice against this Evil?

Lets declare that "there is none worthy of worship except Allaah"

Lets read and understand Quran and lets do accordingly . We all read in Quran and we Say " You alone we worship in in alone You we seek help, another verse of Quran says The mosques are only for Allaah so dont invoke any one along with Allaah (sura jin18) Prophet Mohammed {S} said "whoever dies whle calling upon others than Allaah as a partner shall enter hell fire (sahih Bukhari)

Today we see people worshipping graves...saints.....trees....and calling for help in names of the graves ...is it not Shirk? Is it not the worst evil...is it not to what the people of Dawwah ....all including the Tableeghi Jammt should be calling to...and should the aim of Dawwah not be exclusive to remove this kind of worst evil from society . The great sheikh and the noble person like Sheikh ibn Abdul Wahab was born in Holy Lands and Allaah gave him strength and He did Jehaad against the people who called themselves muslims but performed Shirk ...... what about our lands .... should we not get united against the biggest evil? I pray that Allaah sends down to us a person like him...who in this modern era did a job which surely will raise his ranks in heavens . May Allaah has His Blessing upon Him and May Allaah grants him status so that He drinks water from Huze Kausar and may Allaah gives him the company of Prophet .

When we read and recite names of Allaah we know that He is to live for ever...and He hears every thing in hearts and loud or soft ....when we read His names in Quran we come to know ...that He alone has power over every thing and we come to Know that He alone knows the "Ghaib" ...but what happens to people when they know that Quran says..o Mohammed you will die as others ....and they say no ..Death is not for him.....what happens to people when Alaah so many times in Quran declares that He alone knows the Ghaib and ..today people give this credit to humen and saints and sufis ....why ?

Allahh says in Quran about people who worship their religiuos leaders : "They (jews and cristians) took their rabbis and their monks to be their lords beside Allaah,and they also took their Lord ,Messiah son of Marry while they (jews and christian) were commanded to worship none but one God .None has the right to be worshipped but He.Praise and glory be to him(far above is He) from having partners they associate with Him" al Taubbah 31

O brothers and sisters dont we see that our people in land of Allaah today are doing same and are worshipping their saints....dont they say to their Religiuos leaders that what they are asking them is wrong . Is it not must for us to be people of Tauheed ...is not must for us not to commit Shirk.

O brothers and sisters the best thing which makes Allaah our Lord happy is that we dont worship any one but Him (tauheed ) and the thing which makes Him ( Allaah) angry is Shirk...when one supplicates and fears and loves some one more than Him .

Is it enough to be born in family of muslims? Is it not evident that today the believers in lands of Non Believers are much better muslims than the ones who declare themselves muslims. Is it not a fact that we mostly choose and sel;ect the ideas of own desires ....and we so easily reject Quran and Hadeeth....we read it and we ...make excuses....why? Dont we read our selves....Dont we hear to the call of Allaah .?

Is it not must that our love and disliking and our hatred and our liking should be related to our religion . Is it not that we should love those who are believers and we should not like those and make friends who dont believe in Quran and sunnah.

Is it not evident that by just declaring own self muslim is not enough ...... the kind of belief which people today have is not more and strong than those who were called "disbelievers " in time of Prophet {S}.

O brothers and sisters the Dawwah is calling each other to one basic principle and that is "tauheed " Dawwah is telling each other and acting upon the sentence that " there is none worthy of worship but Allaah " Dawwah is that we raise our voice and body against those who seek refuge from every thing ....graves and saints ..Dawwah is that we say that such idol and grave worshippers must not claim them selves muslims .
