Allah
Islam is the complete submission and obedience to Allah (God). The
name Allah (God) in Islam never refers to Muhammad (pbuh), as many
Christians may think; Allah is the personal name of God.
What do Muslims believe about Allah?
• He is the one God, Who has no partner.
• Nothing is like Him. He is the Creator, not created, nor a part of His
creation.
• He is All-Powerful, absolutely Just.
• There is no other entity in the entire universe worthy of worship
besides Him.
• He is First, Last, and Everlasting; He was when nothing was, and will be
when nothing else remains.
• He is the All-Knowing, and All-Merciful, the Supreme, the Sovereign.
• It is only He Who is capable of granting life to anything.
• He sent His Messengers (peace be upon them) to guide all of mankind.
• He sent Muhammad (pbuh) as the last Prophet and Messenger for all
mankind.
• His book is the Holy Qur'an, the only authentic revealed book in the
world that has been kept without change.
• Allah knows what is in our hearts.
These are some of the basic guidelines Muslims follow in their knowledge
of God:
• Eliminate any anthropomorphism (human qualities) from their
conception of Allah. His attributes are not like human attributes, despite
similar labels or appellations.
• Have unwavering faith in exactly what Allah and Prophet Muhammad
(pbuh) described Allah to be, no more, no less.
• Eradicate any hope or desire of learning or knowing the modality of His
names and attributes.
• Belief totally in all the names and attributes of Allah; one cannot believe
in some and disbelieve the others.
• One cannot accept the names of Allah without their associated attributes,
i.e. one cannot say He is Al-Hayy - 'The Living' and then say that He is
without life.
• Similarity in names (or meanings) does not imply similarity in what is
being described (referents). As a robotics arm differs from a human
arm, so the "hand" of Allah is nothing like a human hand, His speech is
nothing like human speech, etc.
• Certain words are ambiguous or vague in their meanings, and thus may
be susceptible to misinterpretation. Only those meanings that are in
accordance with what is specified by Allah and His Prophet (pbuh) are
acceptable.
