Question:
He asks this question and says: What are the implications of: La ilaha illa Allah?
Answer:
This phrase is the greatest phrase, and it is the phrase of tawhid (the oneness of Allah). A servant does not enter Islam except by realizing it and believing in it, and that there is no true object of worship except Allah. It is the first phrase to which the messengers called, the first phrase to which the messengers call, this phrase: La ilaha illa Allah. Allah the Exalted said: [Al-Anbiya: 25] And He the Exalted said: [An-Nahl: 36]. And our Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), when Allah sent him, the first phrase he called to was: La ilaha illa Allah, along with belief in Him, and that He is the Messenger of Allah. It necessitates the sincerity of worship to Allah alone, and belief that He is the one worshipped in truth, and that He is the Lord of the worlds, and that He is the Creator and the All-Knowing, and that He is the one who deserves to be worshipped and His commands obeyed. It necessitates that the servant believes that Allah is the Creator of the servant, and that He has prepared for him Paradise and Hellfire, and that he must meet his Lord, either in Paradise or in Hellfire.
So this phrase is the foundation of the religion and the basis of the faith, and it is the firm handhold. Therefore, one must believe in it and hold its meaning in his heart, and that there is no true object of worship except Allah. This belief necessitates obeying the commands and leaving off the prohibitions, obeying... the true Allah in whom you have believed is your true object of worship. It necessitates that you fulfill His right by worshipping Him with your prayer, your fasting, your zakah, your Hajj, your fasting, and other things. The meaning of tawhid (the oneness of Allah) is worship. The meaning of La ilaha illa Allah is: there is no true object of worship except Allah, meaning: there is no true object of worship except Allah.
So it is obligatory for you to worship Him, and to worship Him with your prayer, your fasting, your zakah, your Hajj, your jihad, and the rest of your acts of worship, singling Him out for them, the Lord (Glorified and Exalted is He), and to worship Him alone, hoping for His reward and fearing His punishment (Glorified and Exalted is He).
And likewise, among its implications is that you believe in what Allah has forbidden for you, such as shirk (associating partners with Allah) and sins, and that you stay away from that and beware of it. Yes.

And We sent not before you any messenger except that We revealed to him that, "There is no deity except Me, so worship Me."
وَمَا أَرْسَلْنَا مِنْ قَبْلِكَ مِنْ رَسُولٍ إِلَّا نُوحِي إِلَيْهِ أَنَّهُ لا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنَا فَاعْبُدُونِAnd We certainly sent into every nation a messenger, [saying], "Worship Allah and avoid Taghut."
وَلَقَدْ بَعَثْنَا فِي كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ رَسُولًا أَنِ اُعْبُدُوا اللَّهَ وَاجْتَنِبُوا الطَّاغُوتَSo this phrase is the foundation of the religion and the basis of the faith, and it is the firm handhold.
