There are three types of Tawhid:
- Believing in Allah’s Lordship: It is to believe that only Allah the Almighty is the Creator, the Possessor of all things and The Manager of all affairs. Allah the Almighty says: (Allah is the Creator of all things) [Az-Zumar 39: 62]
- Believing in Allah’s Divinity: It is to believe that there is not deity worthy of worship but Allah Alone, so man should never join partners with Allah in worship.
- Believing in Allah’s Names and Attributes: It is to believe in the Uniqueness of Allah’s Names and Attributes which Allah the Almighty mentions in His Book and in the words of His Prophet PBUH without any distortion or personification.
(Allah has the Most Beautiful Names. So call upon Him by them, and keep away from those who abuse His Names.1 They will be punished for what they used to do.) Al-Araf 7: 180
(Allah—there is no Allah ˹worthy of worship˺ except Him. He has the Most Beautiful Names.) Taha 20:8
أنواع التوحيد ثلاثة
توحيد الربوبية : وهو إفراد الله سبحانه وتعالى بالخلق، والملك، والتدبير، قال الله تعالى ( الله خالق كل شئ) الزمر 39: 62.
توحيد الألوهية : وهو افراد الله سبحانه بالعبادة بأن لا يتخذ الإنسان مع الله احداً يعبده.
توحيد الأسماء والصفات، وهو إفراد الله سبحانه وتعالى بما سمى به نفسه ووصف به نفسه في كتابه أو علي لسان نبيه صلي الله عليه وسلم من غير تحريف ولاتعطيل ومن غير تكييف ولا تمثيل.
(وَلِلَّـهِ الْأَسْمَاءُ الْحُسْنَىٰ فَادْعُوهُ بِهَا ۖ وَذَرُوا الَّذِينَ يُلْحِدُونَ فِي أَسْمَائِهِ ۚ سَيُجْزَوْنَ مَا كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ ﴿ )
الأعراف 7: 180
(اللَّـهُ لَا إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ ۖ لَهُ الْأَسْمَاءُ الْحُسْنَىٰ ﴿٨ )
