Meaning of Tawheed La Illa Hailallah

Knowing the meaning of this noble sentence is one of the very basic principles on the 'Aqeedah of a Muslim. How not, because if someone said the words of monotheism is then he will not be able to carry out the consequences before knowing what it meant and he will not get many virtues of this noble sentence until he knows what it means, practice it and died on it. Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala says:
وَلَا يَمْلِكُ الَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ مِنْ دُونِهِ الشَّفَاعَةَ إِلَّا مَنْ شَهِدَ بِالْحَقِّ وَهُمْ يَعْلَمُونَ
"And the gods they worship other than God can not give intercessor` at: but (people who can give intercessor `at is a) a person who recognizes the right of (tawhid) in a state they know (him)." (Surah Az -Zukhruf: 86)
And the Prophet Shollallahu 'alaihi wa' ala alihi wasallam has stated:
مَنْ مَاتَ وَهُوَ يَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللهُ دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ
"Those who died in a state mengatahui that really has no right to be worshiped gods except Allah that it will enter Paradise." (HSR. Bukhary of the Companions of Abu Hurayrah)

Therefore, the following is a brief explanation about the meaning of Tawheed this glorious sentence:La ilaha illallah is a sentence consisting of four words, namely: the word (laa), word (ilaha), word (illa) and word (God). As for the language we can describe briefly as follows:
• Laa is a lil nafiyah jeans (Eliminates the existence of any type of noun that comes after it). For example the words of the Arabs "Laa rojula fid of" (There is no male in the house) that negate (negate) all kinds of men in the house. So laa in the sentence is meaningless disclaimer monotheism all types of worship and worship of truth from anyone except Allah 'Azza wa Jalla.
• Ilah is mashdar (basic word) which means maf'ul (object) so that meaningful ma `l uh which means it is ma'bud (who worshiped). Because aliha meaning is' abada so that meaning is ma'bud ma'luh. This is as in the reading of Ibn 'Abbas radhiallahu' anhuma to paragraph 127 in sura Al-A'raf:
وَقَالَ الْمَلأُ مِنْ قَوْمِ فِرْعَوْنَ أَتَذَرُ مُوْسَى وَقَوْمَهُ لِيُفْسِدُوْا فِيْ الْأََرْضِ وَيَذَرَكَ وَإِلَهَتَكَ
"Said the chiefs of Pharaoh (the Pharaoh):" Do you allow Moses and his people to make mischief in this country (Egypt) and leave you and ilahatahmu (worship you)? "Il ahat aka (ilahatahmu) that is worship to you, because Pharaoh was worshiped and not worship. This indicates that Ibn 'Abbas understands that the word means worship Ilahah
• Illa (except). The exception here is the issue that the word is located after the word illa of law that has been denied by laa. For example in the example above laa rajula illa fid of Muhammad, Muhammad (as a word after illa) expelled (excluded) from the law prior to the removal of all types illa men in the house, so that their meaning is not one of those guys in in the house except Muhammad. If applied in the sentence meaning is the meaning of this unity that only God diperkecualikan from all kinds of gods who have been denied by previous laa said.
• Lafadz "God" from Al-Ilah he is disposed to facilitate hamzahnya read it, then the first night diidhgamkan (combined) on the second night it becomes for the one night that ditasydid and the second lam thick spoken as the opinion of Imam al-Kisa `i and Imam Al-Farra 'and also the opinion of Imam As-Sibawaih.As for its meaning, said Al-Imam Ibn Al-Qoyyim in Madarij Salikin (1 / 18): "The name" God "shows that it is He who is ma'luh (worshiped) ma'bud (who worshiped). All creatures worship him with love, reverence and deference. "
Lafadz jalalah "God" is a special name for God alone, as for all the names and attributes of God that others returned to the lafadz jalalah. That's why none of his being called God.Then from the most important matters in mind that this Laa-as already known by everyone who has a knowledge of Arabic-Khobar need isim and as said by Ibn Malik in Alfiyahnya:
عَمَلَ إِنَّ اجْعَلْ لِلاَ فِي نَكِرَه
"Make the practice Inna (menashab isim and merafa 'Khobar) to laa when isimnya nakirah."
Isim laa ilaha is the word, as for khobarnya, this is where the dispute lies the man in the determination. As selected by the Salaf as a whole is that khobarnya (discarded) because that should determine khobarnya to understand its meaning correctly. Salaf and the scholars agree that it is disposed of or bihaqqin haqqun word (the right to be worshiped), with the argument of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala says in Surah Luqman verse 30:
ذَلِكَ بِأَنَّ اللهَ هُوَ الحَقُّ وَأَنَّ مَا يَدْعُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِهِ البَاطِلُ وَأَنََّ اللهَ هُوَ العَلِيُّ الكَبِيْرُ
"That is because Allah is the right (to worship) and whatever they worship besides Allah then it is the worship of vanity and Allah Most High, Most Great." And like him in surah Al-Hajj verse 62.
So of all the above, we can conclude that the meaning of La ilaha illallah is no gods except the right to worship God. Then the sentence would be monotheism indicates disclaimer / denial / negation of all types of worship and the worship of anything other than Allaah, what is and whoever he was, and establishing that the adoration and worship with all sorts of shapes-both zhohir or inner-directed only to not to other than Allah. Therefore all that is worshiped besides Allah Ta'ala was right has been worshiped, but he worshiped with sleaze, kezholiman, overshooting the limits and arbitrariness. This is the meaning understood by the Arabs-the believer or kafirnya-when they hear the words laa ilaha illallah, as we will explain below Inshallah Ta'ala.
Here are some of the words of the scholars who show true what we describe:
Al-Wazir said Abul Muzhoffar in Al-Ifshoh: "Lafazh" God "after" illa "indicates that worship must (intended) only to Him, then there is no (one) apart from Him who deserve it (worship)" . And he also said: "And including avail of this is you should know that this sentence includes the Kufr to Evil (all that is worshiped but Allah) and believe only in Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala. So when you deny the obligation of worship and establish worship only to Allah Subhanahu it means you have to taghout kufr and faith in God. "
Imam Ibn Rajab said: "Al-Ilah are adhered to and not because glorify didurhakai and glorify Him, to feel love, fear, hope and sole trust Him, asking and praying to Him. And all this should not except Allah 'Azza wa Jalla. So who included his being at one of the matters which is the specificity of worship (worship) is then he has damaged his sincerity in the words La ilaha illallah. And him being there to worship (shirk) that its content conforms with many or at least those things are to him. "
Said Al-Imam Al-Baqo `iy:" La ilaha illallah is the negation of the right to make that worshiped other than the King's most noble because actually this science, especially Laa Ilaahaa illallah is warning that the greatest help from the state of doomsday and indeed become a science if bemanfaat, and be beneficial if accompanied with submission and work with its provisions. If not then it is mere folly. "
Said: Shaykh 'Abdur-Rahman ibn Hasan Shaykh Alu: "And this is most often found in the words of the Salaf and the' consensus (agreement) from them. So this sentence shows nullifying the worship of anything besides Allah any position however. And establish worship only to Allah alone. And this is the Tawheed that the Apostles preached and demonstrated by the Qur'an from beginning to end. "
From the above it is known that La ilaha illallah sentence contains two fundamental pillars that must be fulfilled as a condition of acceptance of the creed of a Muslim who uttered the sentence:First: An-Nafyu (disclaimer / denial / negation) contained in the phrase La ilaha. Ie deny, reject and negate all the right to be worshiped idols after all types and shapes of the creatures, both living let alone the dead, both angels closest to God and the Apostle who terutus moreover creature rank in the bottom two.Second: Al-Ithbat (setting) is contained in the sentence illallah. Ie set all well-born worship like prayer, zakat, hajj, slaughtering and others as well as the mind like resignation, hope, fear, love and others. Both of words such as dhikr, reading the Quran to pray and act so well as bowing and prostration during prayer, tawaf and sa `i when the pilgrims and others only to God alone.
So creed a person is not yet true if one of the two pillars of it or both do not happen. For example there are people who only believe in God's right to be worshiped (just set) but also other worship or not worship but Allah, denying (not deny).
Here's mention of a few verses of the Qur'an which describe the two pillars of laa ilaha illallah this:
فَمَنْ يَكْفُرْ بِالطاَّغُوْتِ وَيُؤْمِنْ باِاللهِ فَقَدِ اسْتَمْسَكَ باِلْعُرْوَةِ الْوُثْقاَ لاَ انفِصاَمَ لَهـاَ
"Therefore, whoever is ungrateful to thagut and faith in God then surely he has adhered to a very strong rope knots that will not break." (Surat al-Baqarah: 256).
وَإِذْ قَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ لِأَبِيهِ وَقَوْمِهِ إِنَّنِي بَرَاءٌ مِمَّا تَعْبُدُونَ. إِلَّا الَّذِي فَطَرَنِي فَإِنَّهُ سَيَهْدِينِ
"And remember when Abraham said to his father and his people:" I am innocent of what ye worship, but (I worship) God made me, for surely He will give guidance to me. "(Surah Az-Zukhruf: 26-27 )
وَاعْبُدُوا اللَّهَ وَلَا تُشْرِكُوا بِهِ شَيْئًا
"Worship Allah and do not ascribe him with nothing." (Surat An-Nis a `: 36)
To carry this meaning of Allaah created the jinn and humans and the heavens and the earth as a facility for them:
وَمَا خَلَقْتُ الْجِنَّ وَالْإِنْسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونِ
"I only created jinn and man to worship Me." (Surah Adh-DZ ariy at: 56)
هُوَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ لَكُمْ مَا فِي الْأَرْضِ جَمِيعًا
"He is Allah, who made everything on earth for you." (Surat al-Baqarah: 29)Therefore God sent the apostles' alaihimush Sholatu was greeting:
وَلَقَدْ بَعَثْنَا فِي كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ رَسُولًا أَنِ اُعْبُدُوا اللَّهَ وَاجْتَنِبُوا الطَّاغُوتَ
"And verily We sent messengers to every nation (to call):" Worship Allah (alone), and shun thaghut it ". (Surat an-Nahl: 36)
وَ مَا أَرْسَلْنَاَ مِنْ قَبْلِكَ مِنْ رَسُوْلٍ إِلاَّ نُوْحِيْ إِلَيْهِ أَنَّهُ لآَ إِلهَ إِلاَّ أَنَا فَاعْبُدُوْنِ
"We did not send any Messenger before you but We revealed to him that there is no God (which is right) but I, so worship ye shall all I do." (Surat al-Anbiya ': 25).
وَاسْأَلْ مَنْ أَرْسَلْنَا مِنْ قَبْلِكَ مِنْ رُسُلِنَا أَجَعَلْنَا مِنْ دُونِ الرَّحْمَنِ ءَالِهَةً يُعْبَدُونَ
"Ask them Our Messengers whom We sent before you:" Are We determine the gods to be worshiped but Allah, the Merciful "(Surah Az-Zukhruf: 45)
And hence also the book of Allah Ta'ala down-his book:
الر كِتَابٌ أُحْكِمَتْ ءَايَاتُهُ ثُمَّ فُصِّلَتْ مِنْ لَدُنْ حَكِيمٍ خَبِيرٍ. أَلَّا تَعْبُدُوا إِلَّا اللَّهَ
"ALR, (This is) a book of verses neatly arranged and described in detail derived from the side (God) is Wise, Knowing, that ye should not worship other than Allah." (Surah Hud: 1 - 2)
إِنَّا أَنْزَلْنَا إِلَيْكَ الْكِتَابَ بِالْحَقِّ فَاعْبُدِ اللَّهَ مُخْلِصًا لَهُ الدِّينَ
"Verily We sent down to thee the Book (Qur'an) to (bring) the truth. So worship Allah by purifying Keta `atan to Him." (Surah Az-Zumar: 2)
This was the conclusion of the sentence meaning monotheism great and noble. The meaning is understood by the Companions and the scholars who came after them to this day even the meaning of this is what is believed and understood by the idolaters of Quraish in the time of the Prophet Shollallahu 'Alai wa' ala alihi wasallam such as Abu Jahl, Abu Lahab and much more, as revealed by Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala their creators:
إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا إِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ يَسْتَكْبِرُونَ. وَيَقُولُونَ أَئِنَّا لَتَارِكُوا ءَالِهَتِنَا لِشَاعِرٍ مَجْنُونٍ
"Indeed they advance if they are told:" La ilaha illallah "(There is no gods but God has the right to be worshiped) they brag, and they say: Do we really have to leave our gods for a mad poet?." (Surah Ash-Shoffat: 35-36)
أَجَعَلَ الْآلِهَةَ إِلَهًا وَاحِدًا إِنَّ هَذَا لَشَيْءٌ عُجَابٌ
"Has he made gods were gods Which one? Indeed this is really a wonderful thing. "(Surah Shod: 5)
Behold-may Allah merahmatimu-how of the answers when he ruled the sentence idolaters monotheism, they spontaneously rejected because it is so knowing what the meaning and consequences of this sentence is supposed to leave all their gods and make only one worship that is only Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala. So how unfortunately someone who claims Muslim Abu Jahl knows more and more understood the meaning of laa ilaha illallah than himself. Musta'an Allaah.
{See: Fathul Majid things. 52-54 and Kifayatul Mustazid bisyarhi Kitabit Tawheed Chapter. Tafsirut Tauhid Shaikh works Alu ash-Shaykh Salih}Said Shaykh 'Abdul' Aziz ibn Baz rahimahullah in Majmoo 'Fatawabeliau (2 / 5): "Verily I have seen the article written by our brother in Allah the Al-Allama Ash-Shaykh' Umar bin Ahmad Al-Malib ary of the meaning laa ilaha illallah, and I pay attention to what he described about the opinions of three groups in the meaning. And the explanation:First: Laa Ma'buda bihaqqin illallah (There is no right to be worshiped except the worship of Allah).Second: Laa Mutho'a bihaqqin illallah (There is no right to be obeyed except Allah).Third: Laa Roba illallah (There is no god but Allah).
And the truth is (meaning) of the first as he described. And (of meaning) is indicated by the Book of Allah Subhanahu in several places in the Qur'an anul Karim, as in Word Subhanahu:
إِيَّاكَ نَعْبُدُ وَإِيَّاكَ نَسْتَعِينُ
"Only Thee we worship and Thee we ask only for help." (Surat al-Fatiha: 5)
And the word 'Almighty:
وَقَضَى رَبُّكَ أَلَّا تَعْبُدُوا إِلَّا إِيَّاهُ وَبِالْوَالِدَيْنِ إِحْسَانًا
"And your Lord has commanded that ye should not worship except Him, and let you do good on your father's mother as well as possible." (Surat al-Isra ': 23)
وَمَا خَلَقْتُ الْجِنَّ وَالْإِنْسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونِ
"I only created jinn and man to worship Me." (Surah Adh-Dzariyat: 56)
ذَلِكَ بِأَنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ الْحَقُّ وَأَنَّ مَا يَدْعُونَ مِنْ دُونِهِ هُوَ الْبَاطِلُ وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ الْعَلِيُّ الْكَبِيرُ
"(The power of God) so it is for Allah, He (God) Who Haq and actually what they call upon besides Allah, that's vanity, and that Allah, He is Most High, Most Great." (Surah Al-Hajj: 62)
