Proofs Of Monotheism In Sura: Al-faatihah - A Rhetorical Study-
Authors : Rabouzi Samir .
Abstract
This article examines a pivotal question concerning the ultimate purpose of creation, as articulated in the greatest Surah revealed in the Book of Allah: the concept of Monotheism (Tawhid) in Surah Al-Fatiha. Muslim scholars have consistently devoted profound attention to this noble Surah and its central theme, giving them precedence over all others. This stems from the abundant evidences reflecting Divine love for both the Surah and its core message, as well as the unique virtues granted to them—virtues that remain unparalleled. A survey of the existing literature reveals a clear dichotomy: works are either excessively concise to the point of insufficiency or unduly prolix and tedious. Many are further marked by fragmented discussions and scattered insights. Consequently, there is a pressing need for a study that systematically traces the rhetorical significations (al-dalālāt al-balāghiyyah) of Divine Oneness. This article adopts a dual approach: first, a theological-scriptural dimension that examines Tawhid as the absolute right of Allah over His servants; and second, a linguistic-rhetorical dimension that applies the principles of Arabic rhetoric—particularly the analytical frameworks developed within ‘Ilm al-Ma‘ānī—to explore this profound subject within the comprehensive structure of this Surah.
