Lessons from “kitab al Tawheed” By Sheikh Muhammed Ibn Abdal Wahhab

Translated by Islamail Raji Al Faruqi

·     Whoever practices tawhid enters Paradise without reckoning.

·     Donning of the sufi garment or chain for the prevention or cure of affliction is Shirk.

·     Exaggerated respect of the graves of the saints transforms them into idols for worship. (Shirk)

·     To bear patiently Allah’s designs is necessary for Iman.

·     Never put anyone equal to Allah in any way.

·     Never exclaim, “how wonderful that Allah and you have willed it!”

·     To curse ad dahr (time) is blasphemy. Ad Dahr is time.

·     There should be no condition in praying or requesting for anything from Allah.

No request is too much or beyond Him.

·     Prohibition of calling anyone “my servant” or “my slave”.

·     Obligation to give those who ask in the Name of Allah.
