Covenant with Allah SWT simply means a Divine Laws sealed contract with Allah SWT and through this column I would humbly seek to explain according to my knowledge and understanding the words of Covenant especially with the Allah SWT in our religion Islam. The covenant with mankind made to Allah SWT during the pre-creation of human being they should obviously recognize Allah SWT as their Lord and uphold the Oneness of Him the truth and do sincerely good deeds to please Allah SWT and none else. The good deeds done for other then the Exalted Allah SWT are not acceptable. Besides the other essential part of the covenant is the declaration of the faith that is 'Shahadah' which every Muslims made in order to become a full pledged Muslims that is - "la-elaha llah" (that there is no God worthy of worship but Allah alone). Let us then observe and refer the Al-Qur'an verse 60 in surah Ghafir mentioned below:
Surah Ghafir verse 60: (The Forgiver or The Believer)
"And your Lord said: Invoke Me, (i.e believe in My Oneness (Islam Monotheism) and ask Me for anything) I will respond to your (invocation). Verily, those who scorn My worship (i.e not invoke Me and do not believe in My Oneness. (Islam Monotheism) they will surely enter Hell in humiliation!"
From the above aforementioned verse 60 of surah Ghafir cited that Allah SWT has commanded the believers to uphold steadfastly His Oneness and those who invoked not believe in the Oneness of Allah SWT will directly enter the Hell in a humiliation manner.
The covenant of the believers Muslims will only be fulfilled by sincere belief and purity believed faithfully in Tawheed in our daily lives. Tawheed in its general meaning is the belief in singling Allah SWT in Lordship. Sincerely and faithfully worshiping Allah SWT and affirming belief in Him Alone because He is the Creator of all creatures. Tawheed is part in practice of the Muslims by avoiding the act of shirk that setting up partner with God.
Further, Allah SWT has sent a practical living experience of life based on the principal of Tawheed because men and women have declared that Allah SWT is his Lord and he must considered righteous and evil deeds likewise be judged by Allah SWT and His Messenger Prophet Muhammad s.a.w.
Finally, I conclude one who is pious and really abide by Allah's SWT commandments should pray and seek Blessing and Forgiveness directly without any intermediary. We should believe that Allah SWT can create all things and every things on this Earth.
Allah is Off-Forgiving and Most Merciful
