Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: What is meant by tawhid al-hakimiyyah (the oneness of sovereignty)? Is it a fourth category of tawhid?
Answer:
Tawhid (the oneness of Allah) has three categories. Let the scholars know that there are three categories, with no fourth added to them. The category of sovereignty is included in tawhid al-uluhiyyah (oneness of worship), and some say it is included in tawhid al-rububiyyah (oneness of lordship). In any case, it is not an independent name; it is included within the categories. Yes.
