Assalam alaikum,
As you are aware, Tawheed [the knowledge and belief in the Oneness of Allah as our Creator and Sustainer of the Universe] is one of the 5 pillaars of Islam, the other 4 being Five daily Prayers, Zakkat, Fasting during the month of Ramadan and the Hajj. Tawheed also involves our Knowing..believing that Allah ( the ONLY BEING worthy of Worship) has Names and Attributes that transcend anything we can imagine...as indicated in chapter 112 of the Holy Qur'an--Surat Ikhlas.
For our Tawheed to be sound, we must be mindful and/or observe the following essentials, namely:--
1. To keep obligations in accordance with the Holy Qur'an and the Sunnah.
2. To always speak the Truth.
3. To keep the heart free from hatred.
4. To avoid forbidden food.
5. To shun innovations in religion, and
6. To be satisfied with Allah Most High in scarcity and plenty, and turn to Him, Exalted is He, in happiness or affliction...
