A--- Uning aksi — Allohdan boshqasiga ibodat qilishdir. Bu boshqa birovga ilohiy sifatlarni nisbat berishni nazarda tutadi. Ayniqsa, Allohdan boshqa birovni ibodatda Unga sherik qilishni yoki zarar, foyda va ne'mat manbai Allohdan boshqa birovdan ekanligiga ishonishni nazarda tutadi. Yuce Alloh aytadi: {Alloh insonlarga biror rahmat (ya'ni yaxshilik) ato etsa, uni ushlab qoluvchi yo'q; va U biror narsani to'xtatsa, undan keyin uni beruvchi yo'q. Va U qudratli, hikmat egasidir. Ey insonlar! Allohning sizga bo'lgan ne'matini eslang! Osmondan (yomg'ir) va yerdan sizga rizq beruvchi Allohdan boshqa biror yaratuvchi bormi? Undan boshqa iloh yo'q. Unday bo'lsa, qayoqqa burilib ketyapsiz?} (Fotir, 2, 3)

A--- The opposite is to worship others besides Allah. This implies attributing divine qualities to anyone else. It particularly implies associating partners in worship with Allah or believing that the source of power, harm or blessing is from others besides Allah. Almighty Allah says: {Whatever of mercy (i.e. of good), Allah may grant to mankind, none can withhold it; and whatever He may withhold, none can grant it thereafter. And He is the All-Mighty, the AllWise. 0 Mankind! Remember the Grace of Allah upon you! Is there any creator other than Allah who provides for you from the sky (rain) and the earth? La ilaha ilIa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He). How then are you turning away (from Him)?}. (Fatir, 2, 3)
