Allah is the Creator of everything. He created the heavens, the earth, and humankind. Allah is One, with no partner. He is unlike anything we can imagine, and He needs no one, while everyone needs Him.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\"><span style=\"color: #993300\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Georgia, Palatino\">Allah Is Close to You<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Georgia, Palatino\">As days passed, that believer began to notice something comforting. Whenever he whispered a prayer, even silently, Allah heard him. Allah sees us at all times and knows what is in our hearts. When we are happy, we thank Him. When we are sad or afraid, we turn to Him. Allah is always near, even when we feel alone.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Georgia, Palatino;color: #993300\">What Does Tawheed Mean?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Georgia, Palatino\">Through learning, the believer discovered the meaning of Tawheed. Tawheed means worshipping Allah alone. It is knowing, deep in the heart, that no person, object, or power deserves worship except Allah. We do not bow to idols or rely on humans for divine help. We seek help, guidance, and strength only from Allah.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\"><span style=\"color: #993300\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Georgia, Palatino\">Allah Is Merciful<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Georgia, Palatino\">Like every human, the believer made mistakes. But he learned that Allah is very Merciful. Allah forgives sins for those who sincerely repent and loves those who return to Him. No matter how big the mistake may seem, Allah\u2019s mercy is greater. This mercy brings peace to the heart and hope to the soul.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"color: #993300\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Georgia, Palatino\">Why Do We Worship Allah?<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Georgia, Palatino\">With time, the answer became clear. We worship Allah because He created us, cares for us, and loves us. He wants good for us in this life and in the Hereafter. Worship is not a burden; it is a connection between the human heart and its Creator.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, Palatino;font-size: 14pt;color: #993300\">The Word of Tawheed<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left\"><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, Palatino;font-size: 14pt\">At the center of this faith is a simple and powerful statement:<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Georgia, Palatino;font-size: 14pt\">\u201cLa ilaha illa Allah.\u201d<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Georgia, Palatino;font-size: 14pt\">It means: There is no true god worthy of worship except Allah.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left\"><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, Palatino;font-size: 14pt\">This one sentence carries the meaning of Islam, the peace of the heart, and the foundation of true belief<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u270d\ud83c\udffb Mohamed Elsharef Who is Allah?
