How to know Allah the great creator (Cont'd)![]() Friday, June 12, 2009 Sleep; The soul whose nature is unknown to anyone except Allah. The creation of the human being, his senses, his nervous system, his intellect, and digestive system,...etc. The rain which Allah sends down to serve the dead earth and brings forth plants of every kind and trees different in kind, colour .......etc. There are only a few of the hundreds of pieces of evidence which Allah the Almighty presented in the Quran. All these evidences prove that Allah is the living, the creator and the sustainer of all creatures. People, by their natural and innate characters, believe that they came to existence by the creation and sustenance of a creator. Allah is the creator and sustainer of all creatures. Whoever denies this innate nature is going astray and throwing himself into distress. Thus, the communist, who denies the existence of his creator and sustainer, leads and miserable life, and in the hereafter his end will be in hell-fire - except for he who repents and returns to Allah, believes in Him, His messenger and his religion, and behaves sincerely according to this belief. Allah accepts the repentance of those who return to him. Allah, glory be to Him has many attributes, he is the first with no beginning for His existence. He is omniscient ever lasting, alive, neither He dies, nor does His existence expire; He is the absolute and the independent; He is the one with no partners. Allah stated in the Quran: In the name of Allah, the all merciful, the all compassionate. Say He is Allah, the one and only Allah the eternal, absolute; He begetteth not, nor is He begotten; and there is none like unto Him (112:1-4) When the unbelievers asked Prophet Muhammad (May the peace and blessing of Allah be upon him) about the attributes of Allah, Allah revealed this sura (chapter) to his prophet and commended him to tell them that Allah is one with no partner. The omniscient, eternal, alive and the sustainer to Him belongs the absolute mastery over the creation, mankind and everything to Him alone should people make for refuge and from Him alone should they ask for help and need. He begeth not nor is He begotten; He has no daughter, son, father or a mother, because progeny, birth, and descendant chains are characteristics of creatures and not an attribute of the great creator in this verse, and other verses of the Quran, Allah negated absolutely the false sayings of false claim of the Jews that Azzra is the son of Allah and the false belief of others who say that he created all these forms of falsehood had been refuted in the Quran: Allah affirmed that He created by His power Jesus Christ, peace be upon him, from a mother and without a father, exactly as he had created Adam, the father of mankind out of clay, eve, the mother of mankind out of Adam's ribs and their offspring out of their seminal fluids. Allah created everything; then He decreed a system for his creatures which no one except Him can ever change. Therefore it is one of the miracles of Allah that He created Jesus; peace be upon him, from a mother without a father, also the miracles of Allah is that he gave Jesus the ability to speak while he was still a baby in the cradle. Allah gave Moses, peace be upon him, the miracle of the staff. This staff turned into a serpent when Moses cast it, and when he struck the sea with this staff, the sea divided and became a path through which Moses and his following were delivered. Allah also gave the seal of the prophet, Muhammad, may peace and blessing of Allah be upon him, the miracle of the splitting of the moon, made the trees to greet him when he passed by them, and animals to testify loudly that he is the messenger of Allah. Allah carried his Prophet on the Buraq from the holy mosque in Makkah to the Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem, then he has been ascended to the heaven accompanied by the angel Gabriel and have the honor of begging in the presence of Allah, glory be to him, spoke to his prophet and commended him and his followers to perform the prayer, on his way back to Makkah the prophet and blessing of Allah be upon him saw the inhabitants of each heaven, all of the journey by night and ascension to the heavens is well known, it is mentioned in the Quran, prophetic traditions and history books; some of Allah's attributes: He is the omniscient, the omnipotent and has the ability to do everything: nothing can veil his seeing or heaving. Allah knows what is hidden in the wombs, what is concealed in the hearts and knows whatsoever happened and whatsoever will happen. When he desires a thing, he commands "Be and it is." Allah attributed to himself speech, He speaks to whom He wishes and decrees whatever He wishes. Allah had spoken to Moses before, and to Muhammad the last of messengers, may the peace and blessing of Allah be upon him. The Quran, in its letters and meanings, is the speech of Allah, revealed to his messenger Muhammad, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him. The Quran, in its letter and meanings, is the speech of Allah, revealed to his messenger Muhammad, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him. Therefore, the Quran is one of the attributes of Allah and not a creation as the erroneous Muttazella believe. Among the attributes of Allah by which his messengers described Him are: His countenance, His highness, His pleasure, His wrath....etc. Author: By Momodou Lamin Ceesay | Media Actions See Also |
