Tawheed vs. Shirk

What is Tawheed?
  • Tawheed is an Arabic word which means, belief in the the Oneness of Allah.
  • Believing that Allah is the only Creator, Owner, Provider and Planner of this universe. He alone has power to control everything. Nothing can happen without His permission. He takes care of all of His creation and protects them.
  • Believing in the Most Beautiful Names of Allah Believing that Allah alone deserves to be worshipped. There is no true God except Allah and we should only respect and love, obey and honour Allah. Make duaa to only to Him and do sajda only for Him What is Tawheed?

What is Shirk?
  • Shirk is to believe that there are other gods besides Allah or that other things/people can be worshiped along with Allah 
  • Shirk is untrue and unfair. Only Allah created us and Allah feeds us so only Allah should be worshipped.
  • Shirk is in the worst sin which will never be forgiven
  • Everything in the universe, the plants, animals, stars and sun that people worship are a creation of Allah. These things are weak and have their own needs, they shall die one day. They cannot create us or help us in anyway.
  • A Muslim should turn away from everything and devout Himself/Herself to Allah alone.
