Can God do anything?

Question

If so, could he make a rock so big that He could not move it? Just curious

Answer 1

there is no impossible in God.. If you believe in Him and trust Him, You can have an everlasting life. If you believe your self, Do it!!!

Answer 2

God could do anything and everything. If he could do anything then he would make a rock so big but he would be able to move it. All things are possible with GOD.

Answer 3

God does not work against Himself, and if God wanted to make a rock (promise) so big He couldn't move (keep) it, it wouldn't be there in the first place. This question is paradoxic and illogical, it is like asking if I could play baseball perfectly with a molecule of air.

Answer 4

Can God almighty create a thing which he cannot destroy?

God cannot do anything and everything. There are so many things that God almighty cannot do.

Can God be born? One of the characteristics of God is that He is not born. If we say that God almighty was born, then there was a time when He didn't exist. And if there was a time when He didn't exist, For Him to come into existence, somebody has to make Him exist. So there is somebody else who is really God not Him. If we say that God almighty cannot be born, we are also saying that The Creator cannot become His creation. Because creation means what is in need of a Creator. To you be a creature, means that there has to be someone who create you. So if God became His creation, that means He is now in need of a creator. THIS IS IMPOSSIBILITY AND ABSURDITY!

Can God create a stone which is too heavy for Him to lift?
God almighty cannot be unjust. The moment when God become unjust, he ceases to be God. Because it's one of quality of God almighty that he is JUST.

The Qur’an says:
"Allah is never unjust In the least degree." [Al-Qur’an 4:40]

God cannot be cruel.

God almighty cannot throw me out of his domain. He can obliterate me. He can kill me. He can vanish me. But he cannot throw me out of his domain. WHERE WILL HE THROW ME? Everything belongs to him.

God cannot create a tall-short man. Yes he can make a tall man short. But no longer will he remains tall. But you cant have a tall-short man. You can have a medium man, who is neither tall nor short. But you cant have a man who is tall and short at the same time.

nowhere does the Quran says that God can do everything, Quran says in several places that God has the power over all things. There is world of a difference between "Allah can do everything and Allah have the power over everything"
Allah says in holy Quran (85:16)
"He does what He intends (or wills)"

Whatever he intends he can do. But God does only Godly things. He does not do Ungodly things.

When we muslims say "God almighty can do all things", we are talking about all things that are consistent in Him being God. Not included the absurdity, impossibility and the things which make "God" no longer "God".



ISLAM HAS LOGICAL ANSWER FOR THIS QUESTION




EDIT >>>>>> ==============================...

"His command when He desires a thing is just to say to it, “Be!” and it is." (Qur’an, 36: 82)

Answer 5

God who??? Why do all these people believe in someone that has killed and mained children? Why do people say if you doubt christ that you are going to hell? This whole christianism thing is a JOKE. I used to be hard core christian untill my husband (who attended a bible christian college) and I started questioning religion. You know what church is for? People who want you to feel sorry for them, pitty them , and pray that life will get better. What a joke... You do for yourself as you would want done for anyone else. YOU control your life, not a fake god. Prayer=not being in control of your own life. Waiting on people and a make believe god to help you. YOU are the ONLY one who can take care of yourself!!!

Answer 6

There are only 2 things that "god" cannot do. 1- the unreal; for the unreal does not exist, and 2- the impossible (see one for definition. OH YEAH! the is a related sub topic. The concept of nothing is headed under the impossible. In order to conceptualize the idea of "nothing" you MUST have at least ONE thing to compare it to; and, by definition of something (one thing) there cannot be a "no thing". You by your very presence in this cosmos negates the fallacious notion of "nothing"

Answer 7

This is really a great question. The simple fact that it irritates the hell out of so many people shows it to be truly compelling. Some folks who believe in God find the implication to be disturbing. Then when they figure out they can't logically answer the question without questioning "God", frustration turns to anger.

Answer 8

well you think you are clever ay but you are not. trying to use deception in your words to pull one over GOD NEVER and ill tell you why. you are asking two questions, "can god", and the answer is yes he can then you ask, "that he cant". by asking this you are asking if god is incapable of doing something and the answer is no, GOD can do anything. he can make the rock as big as he wants and all he has to do is not lift it

Answer 9

You have the most ask question. You are stupid like the other one that make fun of God. Psalms 14: 1 The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

Answer 10

God can do anything. There is nothing impossible with God. He knows what you are thinking; He sees you anywhere you go; He even can tell how you are reacting to the different answers to your question, because He is God and that is why I call Him my God.

Answer 11

If she can do anything she could just change thew rock into a smaller rock that could be moved..... :-P
