The title al-Tawhid in early centuries of [[Islam]], had been an indication of theological outlines and directions of different sects and schools; for the same reason, many theorists in different [[Islamic sects]] used such manifestos with the title: al-Tawhid, to introduce the teachings of their sect. some of such theorists are as follows: some figures among [[Khawarij]], some of [[Mu'tazila]]s, [[Hisham b. Hakam]] (the known pupil of [[Imam al-Sadiq (a)]] [[Hasan b. Musa Nawbakhti]] (Imami theologian in fourth/tenth century) and Hasan b. Salih b. Hay (from [[Zaydi]]s). Likewise, [[Hadith]] promoters from among [[Sunni]]s and [[Shi'a]], set forth particular books with the title: al-Tawhid to present their opinions based on verses of the Holy [[Qur'an]] and Narrations. Apart from ''[[al-Tawhid lil-Mufaddal]]'' -that is believed to be dictated by Imam al-Sadiq (a)- some individuals like: [[Ibn Abi al-Khattab]] (d.262) and [[Ali b. Husayn Babiwayh]] (d.329), the father of al-Shaykh al-Saduq, have authored books about al-Tawhid. | The title al-Tawhid in early centuries of [[Islam]], had been an indication of theological outlines and directions of different sects and schools; for the same reason, many theorists in different [[Islamic sects]] used such manifestos with the title: al-Tawhid, to introduce the teachings of their sect. some of such theorists are as follows: some figures among [[Khawarij]], some of [[Mu'tazila]]s, [[Hisham b.

In addition to this, within [[Hadith collections]] like ''[[al-Kafi]]'', a specific chapter titled: al-Tawhid, is dedicated to this topic. Similar situation existed among Sunnis from late third to fourth centuries; in addition to Ibn Khuzayma, some individuals like: Ibn Minda (310-395) in ''al-Tawhid wa ma'rifat asma' Allah ta'ala'', and Hfiz Darqutni in: (306-385) in: ''al-Tawhid wa al-sifat'' and each of [[Bukhari]], [[Muslim]], [[Abu Dawud]] and [[Ibn Maja]] within their Hadith collections and under titles like: Kitab al-Iman (the chapter on Faith) or al-rad ala al-jahmiyya (refuting [[Jahmiyya]]) have dealt with the issues of [[Tawhid]] and divine attributes. | In addition to this, within [[Hadith collections]] like ''[[al-Kafi]]'', a specific chapter titled: al-Tawhid, is dedicated to this topic.

Historically speaking, in the fourth/tenth century, with the emergence of a gradual weakness in Mu'tazila school and the start of consolidation of [[Ash'ari]] school, the field of narrations started to play major roles in theological matters; and among the theological works within this narrative-inclined movement, probably the book ''al-Tawhid'' by: Ibn Khuzayma and the chapter: al-Tawhid of ''al-Kafi'' were noteworthy to | Historically speaking, in the fourth/tenth century, with the emergence of a gradual weakness in Mu'tazila school and the start of consolidation of [[Ash'ari]] school, the field of narrations started to play major roles in theological matters; and among the theological works within this narrative-inclined movement, probably the book ''al-Tawhid'' by: Ibn Khuzayma and the chapter: al-Tawhid of ''al-Kafi'' were noteworthy to al-Saduq. | ||
