Huston Smith Part 2

What are the basic theological concepts of Islam?

• God: Begins with the concept of Tawhid, which means 'oneness'. Tawhid begins with the idea that there is one God (monotheism), and teaches that oneness is central to the nature of Allah. So according to Muslims, Allah: has no partners.
• Creation: Creation is perfection, as the world is created by Allah.
• Humanity: We forget about origin or where we originally came from and end up taking it for granted. 
• Judgement Day: On this day, Muslims focus on their individuality and freedom as people. 
• Souls face reckoning for all of their past actions, good and bad; as well as their commitment and loyalty to Allah.
