Commonly Asked Questions About "Allah"

Let us now try to answer a number of basic questions about the Almighty:

1. How can you describe Him?

Numerous verses of the Holy Qura'n point out to His existence. Consider the argument of His Friend Ibrahim (Abraham, as) who said: "My Lord is the One Who brings life and Who causes death" (Qura'n, 2:258), and the argument of Moses who said, "[He is] your Lord and the Lord of your fathers of old" (Qura'n, 26:26). Also consider these verses:
Our Lord is the One Who gave everything its creation, then He guided it (to its destination). (20:50)The Lord of the East and the West: there is no god but He; therefore, take Him for a protector. (73:9)

2. Can you define Him?

The Exalted One says that He defies definition: "... nothing at all is like Him" (Qura'n, 42:11).

3. Can one ask: "What is He?"

Pharaoh asked Moses, "And what is the Lord of the worlds?" (Qura'n, 26:23). Moses answered by saying that He is "Your Lord and the Lord of your fathers of old" (Qura'n, 26:26). There is no way to know Him by defining "what" He is; rather, one can get to know the proofs of His Existence, Might, Knowledge, Wisdom, Mercy and His being the Creator of everything. "Do not think about Allah," said Imam `Ali, "rather, think about what Allah has created, for thinking about Allah only increases one's bewilderment."

4. Is He one or more?

The Glorified One has required the Muslims to

Say: He, Allah, is One. (112:1)

And your God is One God! (2:163)

Had there been in them any gods besides Allah, they would both have certainly been in a state of disorder. (21:22)

5. Is He confined to any place?

The Holy Qura'n tells us that: He is the Supreme (watching) over His worshippers. (6:61) They revere their Lord High above them. (16:50) The Beneficent God is firmly established on the throne (of authority). (20:5)

"Above them" in 16:50 refers to the Almighty being above His servants in His Might, Power, Loftiness, not to being above them in place, space, area, elevation, or physical location; these do not apply to Him. The Messenger of Allah called upon His Lord during his ascension to heavens pleading to Him thus, "You are as You have praised Your own Self," and Prophet Younus (Jonah) son of Matti, while being in the bottom of the sea, called upon his Lord saying, "There is no god but You! Glory to You! Surely I have become one of those who commit injustice against their own souls!" (Qura'n, 21:87). The Messenger of Allah has said, "Do not exalt me over him [over Younus] in nearness to Allah just because I reached the High Throne while he was in the bottom of the sea, for the Adored One is above being confined to a space or a direction." He has also addressed Him saying, "You and he in the strata of the heavens;" the believers call upon Him saying, "You and them on earth." Had He been in a particular area or place, all these persons could not have differed from one another in His regard at any given time. He is above being confined to place or direction: "All those in the heavens and the earth glorify Allah" (Qura'n, 57:1).

6. When did He begin to exist?

The Praised One has said, He is the First and the Last, the Evident and the Immanent, and He has full knowledge of all things. (57:3) Everything is to perish except He. (28:88)

Anyone who asks when His existence came to be implies that there was a time when He did not exist, i.e. that void preceded Him. He is not "preceded" by anyone, nor is He "succeeded" by anyone. His continuation is above being tied to time. His existence is too holy to be dependent on time; such are characteristics of things or persons who come to be then perish, or of those whose being is possible in the future, but they do not apply to Him. Another verse which similarly describes His eternity and perpetuity is this one: "Everyone on earth will perish but will abide (forever) the Face of your Lord, full of Majesty, Bounty and Honour" (Qura'n, 55:26-27), and also this: "Blessed is He in Whose hands is the dominion" (Qura'n, 67:1). "Blessed," that is, tabaraka, is derived from baraka, blessing, which connotes constancy and lack of acceptance to change. His existence is everlasting, eternal, perpetual.

7. Over what does He rule?

The Almighty says, "Say: O Allah! Master of authority! You give authority to whomsoever You please and take it away from whomsoever You please" (Qura'n, 3:26). He, and only He, is the King of kings; He grants others authority: "Blessed is the One in Whose hand is the kingdom" (Qura'n, 67:1). Vanities and possessions owned by others will all disappear on the Day of Judgment: "Whose will be the dominion that Day? It is Allah's, the One, the Subduer (of all)" (Qura'n, 40:16).

8. What is [the extent of] His knowledge?

He has said, [He is] the One Who knows the unseen and the seen. (6:73) And with Him are the keys of the unseen treasures: none knows them except He. (6:59) Slumber does not overtake Him nor sleep. (2:255) And your Lord is not forgetful. (19:64) And you are not (engaged) in any affair, nor do you recite concerning it any portion of the Qura'n, nor do you do anything, except that We are witnesses over you when you enter into it. (10:61)

9. What is His speech?

The Most Glorified and Exalted has said, Were every tree on earth (made into) pens and the sea (to supply it with ink), with seven more seas to add thereto, the words of Allah would not have been exhausted; surely Allah is Mighty, Wise. (31:27) Say: Were the sea (turned into) ink for the (recording of the) words of my Lord, the sea would surely be consumed before the words of my Lord are exhausted though We were to bring the like of that (sea) to add thereto. (18:109)

10. How is He?

The Exalted One says, Allah's is the command before (now) and thereafter. (30:4) The day on which no soul shall control anything for (another) soul, and the command on that Day shall be entirely Allah's. (82:19)

11. Why is He the Praised One?

The Almighty has said that He is "... the Apparent and the Hidden" (Qura'n, 57:3), that is, His Existence, Might and Wisdom are all evident if one observes the indications thereto, yet His reality is obscured from all intellects.

12. What is His will?

The answer to this verse is provided by verses such as these: And you do not please except if Allah [so] pleases. (76:30) Allah chooses whomsoever He pleases especially for His mercy, and Allah is the Lord of mighty grace. (2:105) Allah grants His authority to whomsoever He pleases, and Allah cares for all, and He knows all things. (2:247) Allah sets on the right path whomsoever He pleases. (2:272) He it is Who shapes you in the wombs as He pleases. (3:6) If He pleases, He may take you off and make whomsoever He pleases successors after you. (6:133)

13. Why is He the all-Knowing, the Omnipotent?

He has responded to those who raised such a question by saying, He cannot be questioned concerning what He does while they shall be questioned. (21:23) All things are destined in the end to the One Who has facilitated their being what they are, the One Who cannot be explained; therefore, the attempt to analyze Him, His Attributes, and His actions, is simply impossible.

14. Does He have sons, daughters, parents, or any family members or relatives?!

The God of Islam and of all mankind has said, "Say: He, Allah, is One. Allah is He on Whom everyone [and everything] depends. He does not beget, nor is He begotten, and none is like Him" (Qura'n, 112:1-4).

15. Does He forgive?

He has said, "Inform My servants that I am the Forgiving, the Merciful" (Qura'n, 15:49).

16. What about His creation?

He has said, O man! What has beguiled you from your Lord, the Gracious One Who created you then made you complete, then He made you symmetrical? Into whatever form He pleased did He shape you. (82:6-8) Have they not considered that Allah, Who created the heavens and the earth and was not tired by their creation...? (46:33) This is Allah's creation, so show Me what those besides Him have created. (31:11)

17. Can He be seen?

He, the Most Exalted, the Most High, has told that When Moses came to the place appointed by Us, and his Lord addressed him, he said: "Lord! Show (Yourself) to me so that I may look upon You." Allah said: "By no means can you see Me; but look at the mountain; if it abides in its place, then shall you see Me." When his Lord manifested His glory to the mountain, He made it like dust, and Moses fell in a swoon. When he recovered his senses, he said: "Glory to You! To You do I turn in repentance, and I am the first to believe." (Qura'n, 7:143).

Sunnis, however, believe, as the reader will find out in a later part of this book, that the believers will be able on the Day of Judgment to see Allah. Shi`as disagree with them as you will read later in this book, Insha-Allah.

18. How does He command?

He has said, His command, when He intends anything, is only to say to it: Be, and it is. (36:82) When He decrees an affair, He only says to it: Be, and it is. (40:68) His creatures have always wondered about His Attributes, Praise and Glory to Him, so He provided them with the following verses wherein they can find the clear answer: And Allah's are the most Beautiful Names (Attributes), so call upon Him thereby. (7:180) Allah: there is no god but He; His are the very Best Names. (20:8) Say: Call upon Allah or upon al-Raman; whichever you call upon, He has the Great Names...(17:110).

He is Allah, besides Whom there is no other god; the King, the Holy, the One Who grants peace, the One Who gives security, the Guardian over all, the Mighty, the Supreme, the Possessor of greatness; Glory to Allah from what they set up (with Him). He is Allah the Creator, the Maker, the Fashioner; His are the most beautiful Attributes; whatever in the heavens and the earth declares His glory, and He is the Mighty, the Wise. (59:21-24)

Answer 2

If some body owes you A LOT of money. Are you going to let it go? Maybe. However, the debt owed to God by Adam and Eves rebellion was so great that the only thing that could pay it was God's sacrifice. Man disrupted his relationship with God. So, the only way it could be restored was for God to come to earth and restore in as a man (Jesus is God incarnate). Is it fair? NO. But aren't you glad that God loves us more than wanting to be fair? YBIC

Answer 3

I think this is an old roman catholic idea that never really made any sense. The idea of blood sacrifices is an old Mithran Idea that Paul borrowed to get converts while he was hiding out in tarsus after the real apostles ran him out of Jerusalem. The mithrans believed that blood sacrifices had cleansing properties so Paul told them that God had sacrificed his son Jesus to atone for their sins. It worked like a charm and he got lots of converts. The church noticed how well this idea worked and Incorporated it into the roman catholic dogma. It has remained there ever since. When the other christian sects broke away from the catholics they kept this idea as a part of their belief system. Love and blessings Don

Answer 4

If you read the bible with understanding you will know that God,Jesus, Son are three but one. In understanding this you would know that God himself died for your sins.. He did not put anything on anyone Jesus included that he himself didn't bear also. He is a good God willing that none perish. And he couldn't have been fair about it unless he first walked in our shoes..

God is true and Just and the same that he tells us to each work out our own salvation, We will be and are Ourselves held accountable for our own sins.. On that great judgement day he will not allow us to blame anyone else for our sin's..

Answer 5

You're right, He could do anything.

He happened to choose to forgive us through the death of His Son. Through Him, He gave us a real, living, tangible example of His love for us, not just speaking forgiveness into the air.

You're right in that He is just and precisely because of that He (being faithful to His Word) had previously established that "without the shedding of blood, there is no forgiveness of sins" knowing in advance that He Himself would provide a sacrifice.

He in a sense had to provide His own Son in order to save us b/c otherwise, none of us could ever earn forgiveness (the repercussions of our sins are eternal, thus, the need for an eternal sacrifice that forever cleanses us from them).

Answer 6

Original sin is what Adam and Eve passed down to every human being. Original sin is rebellion against God. Until we accept God as our Savior, we are rebelling against Him, thus sinning. God requires bloodshed/death as a punishment for sin. So either we had to die and pay for our own sins or God could send His perfect Son to die for us and take away the sin of the world.
Hansel is right.

Answer 7

Yes God is a just God and because He is, He requires that justice be served. We have consistently shown ourselves to be incapable of a righteousness of our own. So if we are ever to be reconciled to a righteous and Holy God, we need a righteousness not of our own.

God made just such a provision for us through the sacrifice of one who was sinless and more than worthy of bearing the wrath of His judgement for all. That person was His only Son, our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

Joh 3:16-17
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. (KJV)

Answer 8

God won't do everything.. He won't deny Himself. It disregard sin would be doing just that. He must be 100% just and at the same time be 100% merciful. He dies in the cross to buy forgiveness for the world. If you throw it back in His face don't think that that is forgivable... Jim

Answer 9

Every person that is born under the sexual act is born in sin, If Eve did not allow that serpent to convince her that sex can also be for pleasure, then every one born under the tree of life would have been born with eternal life, There was 2 trees in the garden that was 2 laws of reproduction, Not until the curse did God put that serpent into the reptile family, He was an upright creature to be a worker for Adam & the curse put him on his belly & then God cursed Eve's reproductive organs. God required a blood attonment, But Jesus did not have to die if he really did not wanted to, But Jesus knew what his death will bring to the believers, Jesus said that no man takes my life, I lay it down freely & I will raise it up again in 3 days.

Answer 10

You're right. It isn't fair. It's called mercy. It was the plan long before there was sin. Forgivness is not fair. That is good evidence that people didn't make it up. It goes against common sense. Getting mercy when we deserve death. That is love.

Answer 11

The joke is on you.The***PRAYNOGRAPHER***has spoken.
