Tawhid First: The Priority the Ikhwan Neglected
One of the greatest tragedies of Ikhwaan al-Muslimeen is their abandonment of the most fundamental pillar of Islām — Tawḥīd.
Tawḥīd isn’t just a subject in a book.
It is the foundation of our existence, the call of every Prophet, and the first command from Allāh:
“Worship Allāh and associate nothing with Him.”
[Surah al-Nisāʾ 4:36]
But look at the Ikhwaan’s da’wah:
You’ll find endless talk about politics, elections, revolutions, and protests…
But where is the call to Tawḥīd?
Where is the warning against shirk, grave worship, soothsaying, and saint veneration?
Their da’wah doesn’t start with Tawḥīd — it starts with activism.
Their measure of success isn’t sincerity to Allāh — it’s political seats, slogans, and street power.
Yet the Prophet Muḥammad (peace be upon him) spent 13 years in Makkah calling only to Tawḥīd.
No marches. No coalitions with the Mushrikīn. No power-grabs.
Just purification of belief and connection to the Lord of the Worlds.
So when Ikhwaanis say,
“Let’s unite to build the caliphate!”
We ask: Unite upon what? While Tawḥīd is trampled and innovations are ignored?
Without Tawḥīd, there is no Islām.
The house without foundation will always collapse — no matter how beautiful its walls look.
True revival begins where the Prophet (peace be upon him) began:
Tawḥīd First. Sunnah Second. Everything else follows.
