Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : We have reviewed some of the questions from the questioner Abu Muhammad from North Sinai, Egypt. He has this remaining question, O honorable Shaykh: "What are the types of tawhid (the oneness of Allah) and the conditions of the word of tawhid? May you be rewarded."
The Shaykh : Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and I send prayers and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions. As for the questioner's question regarding the word of tawhid (the oneness of Allah), the word of tawhid is "La ilaha illa Allah," meaning there is no true deity worthy of worship except Allah. This includes two important things. The first is negating divinity from all other than Allah (Mighty and Majestic), meaning true divinity; for there is no deity except Allah (Mighty and Majestic).
The second is affirming true divinity for Allah (Mighty and Majestic). With this, sincerity is completed in this great word, which is the gate of entry into Islam. Therefore, whoever says "La ilaha illa Allah" is protected in his blood and his wealth. In the authentic hadith, Usamah ibn Zayd (may Allah be pleased with him) caught up with a polytheist who had fled from him.Sahih al-Bukhari 6872 Usamah said, "O Messenger of Allah, he only said it as a refuge, meaning to seek safety with it from being killed, and it was not out of sincerity." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) kept repeating it until Usamah said, "I even wished I had not yet become a Muslim." This is the most important thing in the word of sincerity.
Among its conditions, meaning the conditions for its acceptance, is that the person must have said it with certainty, meaning he said it with conviction, not with hesitation or blind following, but with the conviction that there is no true deity except Allah (Blessed and Exalted is He). It has complements, some of which are obligatory, and some are recommended, as known in the books of the scholars. Yes.
The questioner : May Allah reward you and bless you.

You killed him after he had said, 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah."
