 • Covered the narration of Abū Mūsā al-Ashʿarī and Ibn Masʿūd: — “How many people intend good but never reach it”
 • Highlighted evidence from the Qur’ān and Sunnah showing the completeness of the religion — no need for additions  “This day I have perfected for you your religion…” (Sūrah al-Mā’idah 5:3)’

 2. Tawḥīd al-Ulūhiyyah – “so worship Him (Alone)…”
 3. Tawḥīd al-Asmā’ wa’l-Ṣifāt – “Do you know of any who is similar to Him?” (denial of likeness to His names or attributes)
