Islamic philosophy approaches existence and creation through the concept of:

1. _Tawhid_ (Unity): Allah is the sole creator and sustainer of existence.
2. _Ex nihilo_ (Creation from nothing): Allah created the universe from nothing.
3. _Contingency_: The universe is contingent upon Allah’s will and power.
4. _Necessity_: Allah’s existence is necessary, while the universe’s existence is possible.
5. _Causality_: Allah is the uncaused cause of all existence.
6. _Teleology_: The universe has a purpose and goal, reflecting Allah’s wisdom.
