وَلَمْ يَكُن لَّهُ كُفُوًا أَحَدٌ

112:4 At the end the word Ahadأَحَد is repeated once again to remove all doubt that any other being could existe and, like Him, might also possess the Attributes He possesses. It says that there is none like Him and none equals Him. The chapter cuts at the very roots of all polytheistic beliefs or ideas, in particular the doctrine of the Trinity. The chapter rejects the belief of the Hindu Aryas that soul and matter are eternal and co-exist with God. It also negates the belief of incarnation according to which a mere human being is likened to God. Association can be of four types. It could be in respect of number or rank, or descent or action and effect. Allâh is free from association of all these types.

Christians discard the Unity of God when they claim divinity for Jesus Jesus was a humble person and possessed human weaknesses and human limitations of knowledge. He possessed no Divine Attributes and there was nothing in him that cannot be found in other human beings.

Allâh’s Unity combines all potentialities in His creation. The Holy Prophet (pbuh) received these words from Allâh: “Al-Ikhlâsالإخلاص is a secret known only unto Me. I entrust it to the hearts of those whom I love most intensely among My servants” (reported by Hudhafiya).
