Allaah and His Lordship
Tawheed Ar-Ruboobiyyah
Back To Full Monotheism Tawhid Tawheed Tauheed
"Who provides you sustenance from the sky and the earth? Or Who is the Owner of the ears and the eyes? And Who brings forth the living from the dead and Who brings forth the dead from the living? And Who plans all matters?" So they will now say, "Allah"; therefore say, "Then why do you not fear?"
[Quran Sura 10:31]
For sure, no body in this universe fails to recognize the existence of Allah since all signs of this universe bear witness for Him.
Pieces of evidence that indicate His existence are of two kinds:
1- The Holy Qur'an: {Allâh bears witness that Lâ ilâha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He), and the angels, and those having knowledge (also give this witness); (He is always) maintaining His creation in Justice. Lâ ilâh illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He), the All-Mighty, the All-Wise.} [Quraan 3:18]
2- Contemplating and thinking about His sign shown in the universe. He says: {Say: "Travel in the land and see how (Allâh) originated creation, and then Allâh will bring forth (resurrect) the creation of the Hereafter (i.e. resurrection after death). Verily, Allâh is Able to do all things."} [Quraan 29:20]
{Were they created by nothing, or were they themselves the creators?} [Quraan 52:35] {Or did they create the heavens and the earth? Nay, but they have no firm Belief.}
[Quraan 52: 36]
Allah, the Great and Almighty, addresses those who deny His existence:
Deniers! No doubt that you are existent and you cannot deny such a fact, and heavens and earth are existent. It is proved, from intellectual point of view, that there must be a founder for every thing in this universe, and this is known even to the shepherd in the desert who normally says: 'Dung indicates existence of camels; traces show that somebody has been present; a sky with constellations and a ground with mountain passes: Don't they give a proof to the existence of The All-Knowing and The Expert?
Then, deniers do not claim that they created themselves the earth and heavens. This means that Allah is the originator of all creation from nothing. He, the Exalted is the First and the last, The Everlasting and the Maker of everything, and The Only One who does what He wants.

"So Tawheed ar-Ruboobiyyah implies: A firm and definite belief that Almighty God alone is the Creator, the Master and Owner, and the Command is for none but Him."
«"Say: He is Allah, The One and Only.
Allah, the Eternal, Absolute.
He begets not, nor is He begotten.
And there is none like unto Him."»
[Quran Sura 112]
"To Whom does the earth and all that is in it belong to, if you know?"
"Thereupon they will say, "To Allah"; proclaim, "Therefore why do you not ponder?"
"Who is the Lord of the seven heavens, and the Lord of the Tremendous Throne?"
"Thereupon they will say, "Such greatness is only that of Allah"; say, "So why do you not fear?"
Say, "In Whose hand is the control over all things, and He provides refuge, and none can provide refuge against Him, if you know?"
Thereupon they will say, "Such greatness is only that of Allah"; say, "Then by what magic are you deceived?"
[Quran 23:84-89]
"But most people do not understand."
Those who truly believe in the Lordship of Allaah will not call on other than Allaah, will not cry out to other than Allaah, will not make vows to other than Allaah, will not petition other than Allaah, will not slaughter animals in a name other than Allaah's and will only rule by Allaah in themselves, their families and others.
May Allaah bless us all with the truth and guide us all to the straight path.
