The lecture "The Beginning of Tawheed: Muhammad and Ali as the Creators and Providers" is a religious book that delves into deep topics related to monotheism in Islam from a Shiite perspective. Prepared by Sheikh Amir Al-Qurashi, this book includes a collection of texts and sermons from the infallible Imams (peace be upon them), focusing on explaining and deepening the understanding of Tawheed and defining Allah and His attributes in a comprehensive and detailed manner.

Book Content:

  1. Concept of Tawheed:

    • The book begins by explaining the concept of Tawheed and its importance in Islam, based on a sermon by Imam Ali (peace be upon him), which considers that the first aspect of religion is the knowledge of Allah, and the perfection of this knowledge is to believe in Him, unify Him, and be sincere to Him. The book clarifies that the perfection of Tawheed is in negating attributes from Allah, emphasizing that every attribute indicates something other than the described, and that Allah is unlike any of His creation.
  2. Attributes of Allah:

    • The book discusses the attributes of Allah as narrated in the sermons of Imam Al-Ridha (peace be upon him) and the sayings of other Imams. It explains that the names of Allah express His actions and that His attributes cannot be likened to the attributes of created beings. The book highlights that Allah is eternal without beginning, existent without non-existence, with everything but not in comparison, and unlike everything without separation.
  3. Divine Will:

    • The book details the concept of divine will, explaining the difference between the will of Allah and the will of humans. It confirms that Allah's will is the action itself, meaning that as soon as He wills something, it happens without the need for contemplation or planning as humans do.
  4. Status of Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them):

    • A significant portion of the book is dedicated to explaining the status of Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them) in the creation of Allah and their absolute power by His permission. The author recounts numerous narrations highlighting their unique status and miracles, such as the narration about the light of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him and his family) and Imam Ali (peace be upon him) being the first creations of Allah.
  5. Educational Role of the Imams:

    • The book explains the role of the Imams as teachers and guides for humanity, showing how Allah has delegated part of His will to them to act upon according to His will. It points out that they represent Allah's meanings on earth and are His side, command, judgment, word, knowledge, and truth.
  6. Warning Against Exaggeration:

    • The book addresses the issue of exaggeration in the reverence of Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them), warning against exceeding the limits in describing them and raising them above the status of servitude. It cites texts and sayings from the Imams warning against exaggeration and calling for moderation in their love and knowledge.

Book Objective:

Sheikh Amir Al-Qurashi aims through this book to provide a deep and comprehensive understanding of Tawheed in Islam through religious texts reflecting Shiite teachings, with the goal of deepening faith and increasing the religious knowledge of the reader. The book offers a detailed analysis of fundamental beliefs, focusing on the role and status of Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them) in Islam, along with an explanation of Allah's attributes and His relationship with His creation in a manner that contributes to strengthening Tawheed and sincerity to Allah.
