This is a question which every Muslim should be able to answer. The Bedrock of Islaam which the general Islamic principle is based upon is known as Tawheed.
Tawheed is a concept that was preached by every Prophet of Allaah and, thus, constitutes the essence of the teachings of Islaam. It means that there is only One Supreme Lord of the Universe. He is the most-Merciful, the most-Beneficient and the Sustainer of the entire world.
We witness a superbly flawless plan in the universe – can it be without a Planner? We see great enchanting beauty and harmony in its working – can they be without a Creator? We observe wonderful design in nature – can it be without a Designer? We feel a lofty purpose in physical and human existence – can it be without a Will working behind it? We find that the universe is like a superbly written, fascinating book – can it be without an Author? Truly, Allaah Says (what means): “O mankind! Worship your Lord, who created you and those before you, that you may become righteous – [He] who made for you the earth a bed [spread out] and the sky a ceiling and sent down from the sky, rain and brought forth thereby fruits as provision for you. So do not attribute to Allaah equals while you know [that there is nothing similar to Him].” [Quran: 2:21-22]
Like I said earlier, the bedrock of Islaam which the general Islamic principle is based upon is Tawheed. This is the basic tenet to which Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) asked humanity to adhere. It is an important metaphysical concept and answers the riddles of the universe. It points to the supremacy of law in the cosmos, the all-pervading unity behind the manifest diversity.
