Oneness of God (Islam)

Tawhid (Arabic: توحيد‎‎ tawḥīd, meaning "oneness [of God]"; also romanized as tawheed, touheed or tevhid) is the indivisible oneness concept of monotheism in Islam. Tawhid is the religion's most fundamental concept and holds that God is One (Al-ʾAḥad) and Single (Al-Wāḥid). Because of the "principle of Tawhid the Islamic belief in God is considered Unitarian."

Tawhid constitutes the foremost article of the Muslim profession of faith. The first part of the shahada (the Islamic declaration of faith) is the declaration of belief in the oneness of God. To attribute divinity to a created entity, known as shirk, is an unpardonable sin according to the Qur'an. Muslims believe that the entirety of the Islamic teaching rests on the principle of Tawhid.

There is an uncompromising monotheism at the heart of the Islamic beliefs (aqidah) which is seen, from an Islamic standpoint, as distinguishing Islam from other major religions. However, Tawhid is analogous to the monotheistic concept of God in Judaism as declared in the Shema Yisrael, the Jewish declaration of faith. Tawhid is also analogous to Christian Unitarianism adhered to by a minority of Christian denominations adhering to a non-trinitarian position regarding God in Christianity, in contrast to most Christian faiths that ascribe to the Trinity (God as three persons in one being; the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit).
