“The best dhikr is ‘Lā ilāha illallāh’ and the best dufiā√ is

‘Alḥamdulillāh”.
171
Because the best ayāh is ‘Lā ilāha illallāh’, then we must
know about its meaning, that is: There is no ilāh (something to be

worshipped) that has the right to be worshipped in truth except only

Allāh alone.

Lā ilāha illallāh has two rukn (principles):

1. Nafy: To negate (abolish/repudiate/deny) everything that is
worshipped except Allāh.

2. Ithbāt: To establish fiibādah only for Allāh alone, there are no

partners with Him.

The consequences (of ُﷲ ﱠ ِ ٰ ِ َ لا إ ل َه إ لا - Lā ilāha illallāh) are that
we must direct all forms of fiibādah only to Allāh alone and we must

sincerely devote (be ikhlāṣ to) fiibādah to Him alone, and not
172
towards anything else besides Him.
