The Fundamentals of Tawheed (Islamic Monotheism)

Summary

Judaism and Christianity may be considered monotheistic by their followers, but according to the Islamic concept of monotheism called Tawheed, their beliefs are compromised, if not transformed entirely into polytheism. Even among Muslims, tawheed has often been neglected despite its centrality to Islam. 

One of the first books written in English on the foundation of Islam according to classical understanding, The Fundamentals of Tawheed answers critical questions like:

• Do Muslims need their basic beliefs explained to them?


• Have Muslim leaders throughout history upheld tawheed?


• Did the Quran declare the early Arabs disbelievers despite their belief in God (Allah)?


• What common reasoning is shared by the Arab pagans and contemporary Muslim shrine-goers?


• Is religion a man-made evolutionary construct or do the facts support an alternative model?


• What superstitious beliefs of the type warned against by Prophet Muhammad permeate even scientifically advanced Western societies?


• What remarkable finding emerges from the author's analysis of folk religions and the discovery of ancient tribes with no contact with the outside world?


• Finally, what have Hindu statues of the erect male organ got to do with any of this?
