Ahad
\r\n Al-Ikhlas (The Sincerity) - Chapter 112: Verse 1

\r\n

\"Say: He is Allah, the One and Only."

\r\n

The first verse of Sura al-Ikhlas is a very comprehensive expression. About Allah it conveys the following concepts:

\r\n

1. He alone is the Sustainer; no one else has any share or part in providence, and since He alone is the Ilah (deity) Who is the Master and Sustainer, therefore no one else is His associate in Divinity either.

\r\n

2. He alone is the Creator of the universe; no one else is His associate in the whole of creation. He alone is the Master of the universe, the Dispenser and Administrator of its system, the Sustainer of His creations, Helper and Rescuer in times of hardship; no one else has any share or part whatsoever in divinity which belongs exclusively to Allah.

\r\n

3. He alone has been, and will be, God forever; neither was there a god before Him, nor will there be any after Him.

\r\n

The attribute Ahad is not used for anyone except Allah for He alone is the Being Who exists without any plurality in any way. Whose oneness is perfect in every way.
