About this listen

In this lesson from Kitāb al-Tawḥīd, we explain the chapter related to astronomy and celestial phenomena, clarifying the Islamic position on stars, planets, eclipses, and natural events.

Islam teaches that the sun, moon, stars, and all cosmic events are created signs of Allah, fully under His command. They do not bring benefit or harm independently, nor do they control destiny, sustenance, or human affairs.

This chapter refutes:
• Astrology and star-based predictions
• Belief that celestial bodies influence fate
• Superstitions related to eclipses and natural events

And it establishes:
• Pure Tawḥīd in Allah’s Lordship (Rubūbiyyah)
• That all events occur by Allah’s decree alone
• The difference between permissible astronomy (علم الفلك) and forbidden astrology (علم التنجيم)

A vital chapter to protect the heart from hidden forms of shirk and superstitions that contradict Tawḥīd.
