Adherent to Tawheed!!!

The adherent to Tawheed is well aware of that which Allah has stated regarding the concept of Gods !

Allah said: "Or have they taken (for worship) aliha (gods) from the earth who raise the dead? Had there been therein (in the heavens and the earth) gods besides Allah, then verily both would have been ruined. Glorified be Allah, the Lord of the Throne, (High is He) above what they attribute to Him! He cannot be questioned as to what He does, while they will be questioned. Or have they taken for worship (other) aliha (gods) besides Him? Say: “Bring your proof:” This (the Qur’an) is the Reminder for those with me and the Reminder for those before me. But most of them know not the Truth, so they are averse.  And We did not send any Messenger before you (O Muhammad) but We inspired him (saying): La ilaha illa Ana (none has the right to be worshipped but I (Allah)), so worship Me (Alone and no one else).” [21:21-25]

Allah stated His disapproval of the polytheists (idolaters) – those who (worship things which they have taken as) gods in the earth, even though these (so called) gods are absolutely incapacitated and powerless. Neither are they are able to bring them back to life nor resurrect them, and this is further explained by the statement of Allah: "Yet they have taken besides Him other aliha (gods) that created nothing but are themselves created, and possess neither hurt nor benefit for themselves, and possess no power (of causing) death, nor (of giving) life, nor of raising the dead." [25:3]

And Allah said: "And they have taken besides Allah aliha (gods), hoping that they might be helped (by those so-called gods). They cannot help them, but they will be brought forward as a troop against those who worshipped them (at the time of Reckoning)." [36:74-75]

A polytheist (or idolater) worships a created thing that can neither benefit nor harm, and he abandons sincere worship to Allah – The One Who is Perfect (i.e. the only possessor of Perfect Names and Attributes; free from all weaknesses, shortcomings and imperfections), and in His Hand is the absolute control over all benefit and harm. This shows that a polytheist (or idolater) is not blessed (with guidance), his ignorance is clearly established as well as the severity of his unjust behavior towards Allah; for indeed it is only befitting that there is only one (true) deity, just as there cannot be except one (true) Lord. And because of this, Allah said: "Had there been therein (in the heavens and the earth) gods besides Allah, then verily both (i.e. the heavens and the earth) would have been ruined. Glorified be Allah, the Lord of the Throne, (High is He) above what they attribute to Him!" [21:22] - Meaning: Both the heavens and the earth would have been ruined as well the creation in them.

The heavens and the earth – as one can see – are in a perfect state, intact and in perfect order. Neither is there any defect in them and obstacles (to its perfect order) nor conflict in its organization. Therefore, this shows that the One who controls and regulates its affairs is One - its Lord is one and the deity (under whose control they are maintained) is One. If it were the case that the heavens and the earth has two (deities) that control and regulate its affairs- two lords or more, then its perfect order would have been ruined and its foundations would have been undermined. That is because they would have been obstacles and opponents to one another; so if one of them wishes to plan and administer something and the other one wishes that it should not take place, then it would be impossible for both their wishes to be fulfilled. (On the other hand), the fulfillment of the wishes of one of them would have shown that the other one is weak and unable do whatever he wants; and it is impossible that both of them will agree on everything.  Therefore, the wish of The Irresistible  (i.e. Allah- the only True Lord and besides Him every other deity is false) - is what will be fulfilled without anyone being able to prevent or repel it. And this is why Allah said: "No son (or offspring or children) did Allah beget, nor is there any ilah (god) along with Him; (if there had been many gods), behold, each god would have taken away what he had created, and some would have tried to overcome others! Glorified be Allah above all that they attribute to Him!" [23:91]
