Jahannam means: a stern look, darkness, and a waterless cloud; Jaheem means a blazing firepit, the look of a lion at it's prey, and to kick up and stir up a fire.

What does it mean to say 'La Illaha Ill Allah'? Has one every truly sat back and wondered what makes this one testimony so special? What makes this the differentiation point between one who believes and one who doesn't? Truly, it is every Muslims responsibility to comprehend fully what this Kalimah entails, because without it, one has not fulfilled the conditions of this testimony.

“Do they seek other than the Religion of Allah…”

Of the categories of tawheed, the most common one is that of making Allah One and Unique in His Lordship i.e Tawheed ar-Ruboobiyyah. The meaning of this is believe that only Allah creates, sustains, and nourishes the entire creation. Of the manifestations of this are: 1) every object must have a creator 2) no object can escape that which is decreed 3) when in distress all of mankind calls out to his Creator. The proofs of this, the proofs of Allah's existence is many fold, of them are: 1) fitrah - innate nature that we are all created with 2) the creation itself - the mountains, the sun, the moon, etc.

THE Purpose of Creation

Our purpose of creation is one and that is tawheed. Tawheed is making Allah One and Unique in His Lordship (Ruboobiyyah), in His Names and Attributes (Asmaa was Sifaat), and in His rights to be worshiped (Uloohiyyah). There are many blessings associated with tawheed, of them are: 1) Jannah 2) a means for sins to be forgiven 3) the right that Allah has over us 4) reason for sending Prophets and Books 5) dangers of its opposite - shirk.
