    Chapter 1

    Who is Allaah?Allaah isAr-Rabb

    (The One Who Creates, Runs the Affairs, and Possesses Everything)

    I testify there is no true God worthy of being worshipped exceptAllaah,And I testify thatMuhammadis Allaahs true Slave and Messenger.

    Allaah is myRabbAllaah is theRabb of everything we see around and that which we do not see, likeAngels and other creatures, the Jinns.

    Allaah created the Angels from light, andAllaah created the Jinns from fire.All the Angels worshipAllaah, and don't disobey him in anything.From the Jinns, however, are those who believe in Allaah and are Muslims, butfrom them there are those that don't worshipAllaah, don't believe in Him,

    disobey Him, do evil things, and call people to evil. Their leader is Shaytan(Satan).

    Allaah created me, andAllaah created you, and all these things which wementioned.

    Allaah gave us many things, and gave all people everything they need.Allaahprovided for us.Allaah gave us life, and He can take it away.Allaah gave ussight.Allaah gave us the air we breathe.Allaah made me alive, and also made allpeople alive.He is the one who gave them life, andAllaah can make me die.Hecan take my life, andHe can take the life of all people.All what we have talked about isRuboobiyyah(Lordship).

    We all need its heat. We need its light.

    Think when you see the moon when it is full. How beautiful it is. It has a courseto take, and the sun has a course to take.

    Wonder about the huge mountains you see, wonder about the waves of theoceans, the clouds, the rain, the waterfalls, the flowers, the gardens, the desert,the sea, the moon, and the sun. Allaah is the Creator of them all. He creates,andHe provides.
