The existence of multiple deities would inevitably lead to chaos and disorder within the universe, disrupting the established harmony. Conflicting wills and opinions would prevent the precise, balanced operation of creation. The consistent order observed—where every action aligns with its intended consequence—demonstrates a single, unifying will governing all existence. This consistency serves as proof of the oneness of God.
