Chapter 1

51:56 Adh-Dhariyat.

Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) said; “I have not created jinn and man
except to worship me”
Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) said; “I have not created jinn and man except to worship Me” (al-
Dhariyat 51:56) And; “We sent a messenger to every nation [saying]; “Worship Allah and shun
the taghut.” (Al-Nahl 16:60) And; “Your Lord has ordered that you worship none but he, and that
you behave kindly to your parents.” (Al-Isra’ 17:23) And; “Worship Allah, and do not associate
anything with Him.” (Al-Nisa: 36) And; “Say: ‘Come! I will recite what your Lord has prohibited
for you: That you do not associate anything with Him…” (Al-An’ am 6:151)

Ibn Mas’ud said, “Whoever wants to have a look at the will that Muhammad (salla allahu alaihi
wa salaam) placed his seal upon, then let him recite the Most High’s saying; Say: “Come! I will
recite what your Lord has prohibited for you: That you do not associate anything with Him…
And surely this is my straight path.” (Al-An’ am 6:151-153)

Mu’adh bin Jabal, may Allah be pleased with him, said; “While I was riding upon a donkey with
the Prophet (salla allahu alaihi wa salaam), he said to me; “O Mu’adh! Do you know what Allah’s
right is upon His worshippers, and what the worshippers right upon Allah is?’ I replied, ‘Allah
and His Messenger know better.’ He said, ‘Allah’s right upon His worshipper is that they worship
Him without associating anything with Him. The worshipper’s right upon Allah is that He does
not punish anyone who does not associate anything with Him.’ I said, ‘Shall I tell this to the
people?’ He (salla allahu alaihi wa salaam) said, ‘Do not inform them since they may depend
[solely] on it.” This is recorded in the two sahihs. {Bukhari & Muslim}
