Tawhid and Fiqh Course Overview:

As we delve into the topic of *Faith* in Islamic Studies, it is imperative to first understand the foundational concept of Tawhid. Tawhid is the fundamental belief in the oneness of Allah, in His uniqueness, and in His absolute sovereignty. It is the central tenet of Islamic faith and serves as the basis for all other aspects of Islamic belief and practice.

One of the primary objectives of this course is to delve deep into the concept of Tawhid and its importance in the life of a Muslim. Understanding Tawhid goes beyond just acknowledging the oneness of Allah; it encompasses the belief in His incomparable nature, His lordship over all creation, and the implications of this belief on the life of a believer.

Through the lens of Fiqh, which is the jurisprudence of Islamic law, we will explore how the concept of Tawhid forms the basis for the ethical and legal framework of Islam. Fiqh provides the practical application of Tawhid in various aspects of a Muslim's life, including acts of worship, transactions, and social interactions.

One of the objectives of this course is to analyze the concepts of Tawhid in depth, considering its theological, philosophical, and practical implications. By studying Tawhid from both a theoretical and practical perspective, students will gain a holistic understanding of how the oneness of Allah shapes the beliefs and actions of a Muslim.

Moreover, this course aims to draw lessons from the concept of Tawhid that are relevant to contemporary issues and challenges faced by Muslims in the modern world. By reflecting on the unity and sovereignty of Allah, students will be able to derive guidance on how to navigate complex ethical dilemmas, uphold justice, and maintain a strong faith in the face of adversity.

Lesnotitie

In Islam, the concept of Tawhid is fundamental as it represents the **oneness of Allah**. The term "Tawhid" is derived from the Arabic word "Wahhada," which means to unify or to be united. It is the central and most pivotal concept in Islam, emphasizing the absolute, indivisible, and singular nature of Allah. The essence of Tawhid is encapsulated in the declaration of faith, known as the Shahada: "La ilaha illallah, Muhammadur rasulullah" (There is no god but Allah, and Muhammad is the messenger of Allah).
