Day 2: What Islam and tawhid mean

Today’s lessonIslam means surrender to God alone, and tawhid is believing that God is One without partner in His dominion and worship. This is the central idea on which everything in Islam turns.

Quran
قُلۡ هُوَ ٱللَّهُ أَحَدٌ ۝ ٱللَّهُ ٱلصَّمَدُ ۝ لَمۡ يَلِدۡ وَلَمۡ يُولَدۡ ۝ وَلَمۡ يَكُن لَّهُۥ كُفُوًا أَحَدُۢ

Say, "He is Allāh, [who is] One, Allāh, the Eternal Refuge. He neither begets nor is born, Nor is there to Him any equivalent."

Al-Ikhlas 112:1–4
