Islamic Belief

The Arabic name for God in Islam, representing the One, Unique, and Supreme Creator of all existence. Central to Islamic monotheism (Tawheed), Allah is believed to be eternal, all-knowing, all-powerful, and beyond human comprehension while being closer to humans than their jugular vein.

Angels (mala'ikah) are beings created from light who hold a central place in Islamic theology. Belief in them is one of the six articles of faith; the Quran describes them as servants of God who transmit revelation, record deeds, and act in death and the afterlife.

Predestination (Qadar) is the sixth article of Islamic faith, encompassing divine foreknowledge, the divine decree, and the relationship between God's sovereignty and human responsibility. It drove major early theological debates, producing the Ash'ari and Maturidi Sunni schools.

Tawheed is the fundamental doctrine of Islamic monotheism, asserting the absolute oneness and uniqueness of Allah. It encompasses three categories: Oneness of Lordship, Oneness of Worship, and Oneness of Names and Attributes. This concept forms the foundation of Islamic faith and practice.
