Monotheism

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.

Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham), known as Khalil Allah (the Friend of God), is the patriarch of monotheism, the builder of the Kaaba, and the ancestor of both the Israelite and Ishmaelite prophetic lines culminating in Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.

Known as Nuh in Arabic, Noah was one of the earliest prophets sent by Allah to guide humanity to monotheism. He preached for 950 years, and when his people persisted in disbelief, Allah commanded him to build an ark and saved the believers from the great flood.

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.
