Abstract

This study discusses the concept of Tawḥīd through the meanings that appear to the contemplator of Surat al Fātiḥah. One of the many noble purposes of this Surah is to establish Tawḥīd along with its practical applications, in the practice of its reciters. For this reason, Surat al Fātiḥah is granted a noble place in Islam, which a Muslim must recite in every rak’ah of Salat. First, the concept of Tawḥīd, a cornerstone in developing a civilization, is discussed. Following this, the methods of establishing Tawḥīd (praise, freedom, and succession) are examined. The article concludes that Tawḥīd plays an essential role in building a civilization.
