Summary/Abstract: Tawhid is the main principle that establishes the essence of Islamic belief. It is a religious belief that all the prophets manifest in the name of Allah. This belief expresses the way of thinking, the way of life that occurs around a single god. In this context, faith is the result of a meaningful relation between the worship and islamic law. Tawhid is not only a discourse for the grace of Allah but a system that determines how Allah-universe relation operates. In this relationship, it is not possible to engage active forces between Allah and the universe. All kinds of beliefs and thoughts are in the face of Tawhid that will leave Allah in a passive position during his relation with the creatures and particularly with humans. In this study, the establishment process of the belief of tawhid will be tried to be examined, which is the basic doctrine of Islamic belief. In this regard, criticism directed at polytheism(Shirk) will be examined from the perspective of Qur’an. Especially areas where tawhid narratives intensify will be determined. The narrative will be attempted to be understood in the way of understanding in the revelation process.
