Shirk (Islam)
Islamic concept of associating other objects with God
Shirk (Islam)
In Islam, Shirk (Arabic: شِرْك, lit. 'association') is a sin often roughly translated as "idolatry" or "polytheism", but more accurately meaning "partnerism or association [with God]". It refers to accepting other divinities or powers alongside God as associates. In contrast, Islam teaches that God does not share divine attributes with anyone, as it is disallowed according to the Islamic doctrine of tawhid. The Quran—the central religious text of Islam—states in Surah an-Nisa, that God will not forgive shirk if one dies without repenting of it. The one who commits shirk is called a mushrik. The opposite of shirk is tawhid and the opposite of mushrik is muwahhid.
