Ayatul-Kursi and Confirming Proofs of at-Tawheed
Imam Muslim collected a hadith in his Saheeh on the the authority ob Ubay bin Kab (radhiallahu anhu) that he said
Allahs Messenger (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said, O Abul-Mundhir! Do you know which verse from the book of Allah is the greatest? Ubay bin Kab said, I replied, Allah and His Messenger know best. The Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said, O Abul-Mundhir! Do you know which verse from the book of Allah is the greatest? Ubay bin Kab said, I said, Allah! L ilha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He), the Ever Living, the One Who sustains and protects all that exists. Ubay bin Kab said, He smacked my chest and said, By Allah! Congratulations, Abul-Mundhir for having knowledge.
Meaning congratulations for this knowledge which Allah has gifted you, facilitated for you, and has blessed you with. The Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) swore by Allah exalting this status and emphasizing this ambition.
Among Ubays excellent perception and keenness (radhiallahu anhu) is that when the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) questioned him he continued in his search for the verse which is dedicated to clarifying the greatest matter in the Quran, At-Tawheed, an acknowledgement of its confirming proofs, and a mention of Allahs greatness and perfection which He is deserving solely to be worshipped. This was from the completeness of his understanding and excellent understanding of the religion.
He didnt cite a verse clarifying praiseworthy etiquettes, subsidiary judgments, past events, horrors of the Day of resurrection or similar to that rather, Ubay selected the verse which is dedicated to clarifying and acknowledging at-Tawheed.
