The questioner:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah preserve you, were the Messengers (peace and blessings be upon them) sent to call to the oneness of lordship only?
The Shaykh:
No one has said that the oneness of lordship was the sole purpose of their mission. They were sent to call to the oneness of worship, which is the oneness of devotion. As for the oneness of lordship, this is acknowledged by the nations, even by the disbelievers. Yes. These groups have been written about, and their doctrines, terminology, and systems have been clarified. So whoever wants to know should refer to these writings and works; the matter is clear, praise be to Allah.
