This Book is first volume of the Series: Of In Search of the Truth. In this Book Tawheed is explained in light of the Quran and Sunnah of the Final and Seal of the Prophets, Prophet Muhammad (SAW). TAWHEED means to accept and believe in the oneness of Allah (SWT) and in the uniqueness of His Message. It means to worship Allah (SWT) alone, and to worship Him in accordance with His legislation. The scope of Tawheed as explained covers the principles revolving around believe in Allah's existence and ownership of the creation. The most fundamental and the most important teaching of all prophets has been the faith in the unity of Allah [SWT]. In its final shape, through the teaching of Prophet Muhammad (SAW) this faith in the unity of Allah [SWT] is expressed in the first part of the primary Kalimah of Islam as "There is no deity worthy of worship but Allah" (La ilaha illallah). This is the bedrock and foundation of Islam.. The declaration of this belief which differentiates a true Muslim from a kafir (unbeliever), mushrik or an atheist). However, the real meanings of TAWHEED are fully realised when, we avoid, in belief as well as in action, every form of disbelief, atheism and polytheism. This is the natural consequence of belief in the Unity of Allah [SWT].This Book consists of five chapters. Chapter 1 includes introduction. Chapter 2 includes evidence of the existence of the Creator. Chapter 3 includes process of Allah's creation. Chapter 4 includes discussion on Tawheed. Chapter 5 includes summary and conclusion.

The book examines the postcolonial Muslim political discourse through monuments. It establishes a link between the process by which historic buildings become monuments and the gradual transformation of these historic/legal entities into political objects. The author studies the multiple interpretations of Indo-Islamic historical buildings as ‘political sites’ as well as emerging Muslim religiosities and the internal configurations of Muslim politics in India. He also looks at the modes by which a memory of a royal Muslim past is articulated for political mobilisation. Raising critical questions such as whether Muslim responses to political questions are homogenous, the book will greatly interest researchers and students of political science, modern Indian history, sociology, as well as the general reader interested in contemporary India.
