A summary of the concepts held by the Ahl al-Sunnah.

2
00:00:08,509 --> 00:00:16,629
The Oneness of Allah, the Exalted, is established in two ways.

3
00:00:16,629 --> 00:00:18,629
The first way is:

4
00:00:18,629 --> 00:00:22,629
The Oneness of Allah, the Exalted, in His actions and His attributes.

5
00:00:22,629 --> 00:00:29,629
For in the actions of Allah, the Almighty and Majestic, none of His creation shares with Him.

6
00:00:29,629 --> 00:00:32,630
This is called the Oneness of Lordship (Tawhid al-Rububiyyah).

7
00:00:32,630 --> 00:00:37,630
Likewise, His attributes, glorified be He, do not resemble the attributes of anyone.

8
00:00:37,630 --> 00:00:40,630
This is called the Oneness of Names and Attributes (Tawhid al-Asma' wa al-Sifat).

9
00:00:40,630 --> 00:00:44,630
Thus, this first way encompasses two types of Oneness:

10
00:00:44,630 --> 00:00:46,630
The Oneness of Lordship.

11
00:00:46,630 --> 00:00:49,630
And the Oneness of Names and Attributes.

12
00:00:49,630 --> 00:00:51,630
It is also called:

13
00:00:51,630 --> 00:00:54,630
The theoretical and creedal Oneness.

14
00:00:54,630 --> 00:00:57,630
Or the theoretical and speculative Oneness.

15
00:00:57,630 --> 00:01:00,630
Or the Oneness of knowledge and affirmation.

16
00:01:00,630 --> 00:01:02,759
The second way is:

17
00:01:02,759 --> 00:01:06,760
The Oneness of the servants' worship of Allah, the Exalted, through their own actions.

18
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:11,790
Meaning, the unification of their intentions and their worship toward Allah, the Almighty and Majestic, alone.

19
00:01:11,790 --> 00:01:15,920
This way encompasses the Oneness of Divinity (Tawhid al-Uluhiyyah).

20
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:17,920
It is also called:

21
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:22,920
The Oneness of intention and seeking, or practical Oneness.

22
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:27,560
