  • [[Bestand:Shahadah.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Het geloof in één God, gebaar tijdens de salat]] Tawhid (of spellingsvarianten als Tawhied en Tahweed) (Arabisch: توحيد), betekent letterlijk 'één maken'. Het woord wordt binnen de islam gebruikt om de 'eenheid van God' en het monotheïsme mee aan te duiden. God is daarmee één: volkomen ondeelbaar, volledig uniek en volstrekt ondefinieerbaar. Het wordt doorgaans tot een van de zuilen van geloof gerekend.
  • The Qur'an asserts the existence of a single and absolute truth that transcends the world; a unique and indivisible being, who is independent of the entire creation. The indivisibility of God implies the indivisibility of God's sovereignty which, in turn, leads to the concept of a just, moral and coherent universe, rather than an existential and moral chaos. Similarly, the Qur'an rejects such ideas as the duality of God arguing that both good and evil generate from God's creative act and asserting that the evil forces have no power to create anything. The Qur'an also rejects the concept of Trinity as prevalent in Christianity. God in Islam is a universal god, rather than a local, tribal or parochial one -- is an absolute, who integrates all affirmative values and brooks no evil.

  • [[Bestand:Shahadah.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Het geloof in één God, gebaar tijdens de salat]] Tawhid (of spellingsvarianten als Tawhied en Tahweed) (Arabisch: توحيد), betekent letterlijk 'één maken'.

Het wordt doorgaans tot een van de zuilen van geloof gerekend. Wanneer moslims 'Allahu Akbar' (letterlijk: God is groter) uitroepen, bedoelen ze niet dat God groter dan iets is, Hij is immers enig, maar dat Hij eenvoudigweg groter is. De wortel van het woord is eveneens te vinden in ahad, gerelateerd aan alleenstaande.

Tawhid constitutes the foremost article of the Muslim profession. The first part of the Shahada is the declaration of belief in the oneness of God. To attribute divinity to a created entity is the only unpardonable sin mentioned in the Qur'an. Muslims believe that the entirety of the Islamic teaching rests on the principle of Tawhid. There is an uncompromising monotheism at the heart of the Islamic beliefs which distinguishes Islam from some other major religions. Islamic intellectual history can be understood as a gradual unfolding of the manner in which successive generations of believers have understood the meaning and implications of professing God's Unity. Islamic scholars have different approaches toward understanding it. Theology, Fiqh, philosophy, Sufism, even to some degree the natural sciences, all seek to explain at some level the principle of tawhid.
