DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawmul ahad, 29th day of Jumaadal Uulaa, 1446AH (Sunday, 1st Dec. 2024). WHO IS ALLAH continues?. My apologies for the length as the topic is huge and require deep explanation from the Quran itself. BismilLah.

The Quran has been the only surviving Authentic speech of the Creator tell us that ALLAH has always existed and there never was a time HE did not exit. As such, HE is the Eternal, without beginning and without end. HE is the only creator and sustainer of all that exists and nothing, and no one exists alongside HIM, nor does HE have any partners. HE tells us that HE is not created, nor is HE like HIS creation in any way. HE calls HIMSELF by a number of names, and some of them are:

The First - (Al-Awwal), The Last - (Al-Akhir), The Eternal and the One who is sought after by HIS creation, while HE has no need from them at all. (As-Samad). HE is not a man, and HE has no progeny or offspring. HE is not what HE creates, nor is HE compared to it. HE always has existed, and HE never was created, as HE is not like HIS creation, nor similar to it, in any way. "HE" is only used to show respect, not gender as our language is limited in defining who ALLAH is, but let's ask the Quran how ALLAH defined HIMSELF. ALLAH says in Quran chapter 112; If they ask who is ALLAH then say; HIS name is ALLAH meaning meaning the Only POWER worthy of worship, HE is ONE and ONLY not just one, Quran didn't say waahid but ahad meaning ONE and ONLY Allahu Akbar, Quran is too sweet and too powerful Maa Shaa ALLAH. 

Let's continue, Allahus Samad meaning all depend on HIM, anything, living, and non-living things, but HE needs NONE. And HE gave birth to nothing but Created everything, and HE wasn't giving birth to or created by anything, and FINALY There is NOTHING LIKE HIM. Allahu Akbar. 

The prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) explained the devil would come to a person and whisper, asking them questions about creation; "Who created this or that?" to which the reply would be; "ALLAH" until he would ask; "Who created ALLAH?" At this stage, the prophet advised us to drop this train of thought as our brain has a limit to comprehend till we die to face the reality. Obviously, ALLAH - the true one GOD - must be eternal and not have to be created. So let's learn the Quran and use it when they approach us for questioning. 

The Quran tells us:

 Allahu! La ilaha illa Huwa (There is none worthy of worship except ALLAH), the Ever Living, the Sustainer and Protector of all that exists. HE doesn't get tired, and HE doesn't sleep. Everything in the universe belongs to HIM. Who then could intercede between HIM and his creatures without HIS Permission? HE Knows everything about them, and they have no knowledge except as HE wills. HIS kursi (stool or chair) extends over the entire universe, and HE doesn't get tired of guarding and preserving it. HE is Most High, the Most Great. This verse is called Ayat-ul-Kursi.] [Noble Quran 2:255]. One of the greatest verses in the Quran, which Satan fears when we recite it. This verse truly presents the comprehensive representation of ALLAH in a way without trying to define HIM by comparing HIM to HIS creation, but rather as being the Absolute in all of HIS Attributes and Characteristics. 

May ALLAH keeps guiding us from any satanic influences and increases us in beneficial knowledge and Wisdom. Aameen.
