Abstract

Tawhid Maliki refers to the exclusive attribution of ownership and absolute sovereignty over all aspects of creation to God Almighty. This concept is one of the foundational beliefs of Islam and among the most fundamental teachings of the Quran. Its absence in political thought systems is the root cause of conflicts, damages, and the failure of civilizations to achieve true human happiness. From the Islamic perspective, true human perfection and genuine happiness are contingent upon "God-centeredness" and understanding the authentic relationship between God and humanity. Attention to this Islamic teaching has numerous implications for shaping a blissful political life, distinguishing it from its Western counterpart.



This study, employing a descriptive and analytical method and examining the works of Allama Tabatabaei, particularly *Tafsir al-Mizan*, seeks to elucidate the applications of *Tawhid Malki* in the realm of Islamic politics. The applications derived from this research include: "Creating Supranational Responsibilities," "Transition from Accumulative Political Growth to Kauthar-like Growth," and "Harmonizing Political Interests."
