Al-Imām Muhammad ibn ‘Abdul Wahhāb رحمه الله
"The Foundation of the religion of Islam (Aslu-Dīn al-Islām) and its principles consist in two matters:
▪The First:
The command to worship Allāh ﷻ alone with no partners associated with Him, and the encouragement upon this with the allegiance based upon it and the declaration of disbelief ( Takfīr ) of whoever leaves it.
▪The Second:
The warning against Shirk in the worship of Allāh ﷻ and being stern in that and having enemity based upon that, and the declaration of disbelief (Takfīr) of whoever commits it.
So the sanctity of Tawhîd is not complete except with this, and it is the religion of the Messengers who warned their peoples about shirk, as He (ﷻ) stated: “And verily, We sent to every community a Messenger (proclaiming): ‘Worship Allâh (Alone) and avoid the Tâghût." [Qur’an 16:36]
