The question we need co ask ourselves is: ‘Is Allah One in my life? Do I direct everything to Him - from fears and hopes to needs?’ Realizing that He is One is to know that there is no love like His love,that there is no One who gives like Him,and that there is no One else who can fill the void — only Him, the One. Knowing that He is al-Wahid al-Ahad reminds us that this life is about Him. He is our ultimate goal. This life is temporary; its joys and pains will disappear, and this knowledge should negate our worldly attachments and our submission to them. Allah tells us in the Quran: ‘Our God is One, so devote yourselves to Him. [Prophet],give good news to the humble, whose hearts fill with awe whenever God is mentioned, who endure whatever happens to them with patience, who keep up the prayer, who give to others out of Our provision to them.”[22:34-35] This is submission to the oneness of God in action.
