Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, sometimes the difference between tawhid al-asma' wa al-sifat (oneness of the names and attributes) and tawhid al-rububiyyah (oneness of lordship) is confusing to me, so what is the difference between them?
Answer:
Tawhid al-asma' wa al-sifat (oneness of the names and attributes) is part of tawhid al-rububiyyah (oneness of lordship); it is a section of tawhid al-rububiyyah (oneness of lordship). Tawhid al-rububiyyah (oneness of lordship) is the oneness of Allah in His actions, His names, and His attributes. Yes, it is a section of tawhid al-rububiyyah (oneness of lordship), but they made it a separate section because the people of misguidance spoke a lot about it, so they made it an independent section. Yes.
