Short answer

Tawhid is affirming God's oneness in worship and denying that He has any partner or equal. It is the root of Islamic belief.

Detailed answer

In Islam, tawhid is affirming God's oneness in divinity and denying that He has any partner or equal. Al-Tahawi begins his account of belief by saying that God is one with no partner, as the entry Tawhid sets out. Tawhid is linked to the shahada, since the statement "there is no god but God" carries this meaning, as the entry The shahada sets out. It is a subject that branches into topics of theology and creed, where the schools differ in the details, so it is presented here only in its basic form.
