Accepting Allah’s authority and seeking to live according to his guidance.
Revise: Shahadah3:20 instructs Muhammad to say, ‘I have submitted myself to Allah’, along with those who follow him. This connects declaring faith with submission. It also identifies Muhammad’s responsibility to communicate the message when others turn away.
Use Surah 3:18 to support Tawhid and Surah 3:20 to explain submission; connect the teaching to the point you are making.
Distinguish submission from prayer alone: it includes worship, trust in Allah and ethical behaviour.
For comparison questions, explain both similarities and differences: both accounts describe a test of obedience and the son being spared, but Genesis names Isaac and the Qur’an explicitly describes the son’s willing submission.
