Unity of Sovereignty
He is God, the One! (Allah, Yahweh, Elohim)
[He is Unique in His Essence and Attributes and He alone is the Sovereign Law-Giver in the Universe].
God is Absolutely Independent.
[Samad = Absolute, Eternal, Unique, Self-sufficient Sustainer, Absolutely Independent, Perfect, the Uncaused Cause of all that exists]. (Al-Ikhlas, 112:1-2)
In the New Testament, Jesus Christ said:
‘Hear, o Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is One. And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ This is the first commandment. And the second, like it, is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these. (Mark 12:29-31)
Oneness of Natural/ Universal Law
Surely, your Sustainer is God Who created the heavens and earth in six stages, and then established Himself on the Throne of His Almightiness. He draws the night over the day, each seeking the other in rapid succession. The sun, the moon and the stars are committed to serve by His command. Remember! To Him belongs the World of Creation, and to Him belongs the World of command. Exalted is God, the Lord of the worlds. (Al-A’raf 7:54)
Oneness of God
We have sent you the revelation as We sent it to Noah and the prophets after him. We sent revelations to Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, and his progeny (the Tribes), Jesus, Job, Jonah, Aaron, and Solomon; and to David We gave Zaboor. [Zaboor = The Psalms = A book of Divine wisdom]
We sent Our messengers to all nations with a uniform message. We have told you the stories of some in the Qur’an, of the others We have not. (However, all of them were assigned a Common Mission.) And God spoke directly to Moses.
All messengers gave good news, as well as warning, so that humans would not have an argument against God, after the messengers conveyed to them the guidance. God is Almighty, Wise.
God bears witness concerning what He has revealed to you. With His Own knowledge He has revealed it. (If you reflect on the Order in the Universe, you shall find that) the angels, the universal laws, also bear witness. Yet, God is Sufficient Witness. (An-Nisa 4: 163-166)
