However they did not affirm tawheed of worship and divinity ( tawheed ul uloohiyyah), and worshipped idols.

Allah Ar-Rabb says: And indeed if you ask them: Who has created the heavens and the earth? They will surely say: The All-Mighty, the All-Knower created them. It is firmly believing that only Allah nourishes and sustains and that no other being can do the things Allah ‘azza wa jall does.įor example the Mushrikeen among whom the Prophet salallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam was sent did not disagree with this type of tawheed they affirmed it in general terms. Examples are creation, controlling affairs, provision, giving life and death, and sending down rain. This means that you affirm Allah is one and unique in His actions. One of the types of tawheed a true Muslim should believe in and live by is tawheed ar-ruboobiyyah, the Oneness of Allah’s Lordship. Indeed, You are the Hearer of supplication. At that, Zechariah called upon his Lord, saying, My Lord, grant me from Yourself a good offspring. And, when your Lord said to the angels, Indeed, I will make upon the earth a successive authority.

Only Allah is Ar-Rabb He is the true and complete owner of everything in existence and the only one who takes care, nourishes, and fosters everything that exists through every stage of existence.Īr-Rabb Himself says. Rabb is also used with an adjective to refer to people, indicating the “master” or the one who is obeyed, for example rabb ud daar- the master of the house. It is often used to indicate how we bring up and nurture our children. The word tarbiyyah is also derived from the same root, and it means to take care of.

Linguistically, Rabb is a term used for the owner (maalik), the master (as-sayyid), the one who takes care of, sustains, nourishes (al-qayyoom), and provides or takes care of everything (ar-razzaaq). Examples of these forms are rabbee (“my Lord”), al rabaaniyoona (“the Rabbis”), and ribbiyyoona (“religious scholars”). This root appears 980 times in the Quran in four derived forms. The second main meaning is to take care of, nourish, sustain, and provide for, and the third is to raise or bring up. The first main meaning is to be lord, owner, or master. Rabb comes from the root raa-baa-baa, which points to three main meanings. The Lord, the Master, the Creator and Nurturer He is the one who created us, who sustains us, who fosters and regulates all beings from the earliest state to that of the highest perfection! Allah calls Himself Ar-Rabb- The Lord, the Master- on more than 900 occasions in the Quran. Ar-Rabb is the only one who truly takes care of the whole creation, nourishing it in the most perfect way.
