As a real muslim you are not allowed even to think about anything relating with the perfect ALLAH SWT nor our prophet MOHAMMED SAAS but you can learn anything in the islam as a religion but please far from ALLAH SWT and our prophet MOHAMMED SAAS because even thinking is a sherk

sis, sorry but I disagree with that strongly. When someone get such questions and then ask about what he is thinking and then got the answer to that then his Iman will grow even more than what it was when he has those wonders.

As for the brother's questions, I don't see anything wrong with him asking so he can strengthen his Iman. He didn't touch any aspects of the perfection of Allah Azza Wa Jal. Its required to ponder over the creation of Allah and see how can this universe be created in such a very accurate way, its even mentioned in Quran here:

إِنَّ فِي خَلْقِ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ وَاخْتِلافِ اللَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ لآيَاتٍ لأُولِي الأَلْبَابِ (190)الَّذِينَ يَذْكُرُونَ اللَّهَ قِيَامًا وَقُعُودًا وَعَلَى جُنُوبِهِمْ وَيَتَفَكَّرُونَ فِي خَلْقِ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ رَبَّنَا مَا خَلَقْتَ هَذَا بَاطِلا سُبْحَانَكَ فَقِنَا عَذَابَ النَّارِ(191)

Lo! In the creation of the heavens and the earth and (in) the difference of night and day are tokens (of His Sovereignty) for men of understanding, (190) [Such as remember Allah, standing, sitting, and reclining, and consider the creation of the heavens and the earth, (and say): Our Lord! Thou createdst not this in vain. Glory be to Thee! Preserve us from the doom of Fire. (191)

[Al-Imran:190-191]

So even Allah want us to think about what is around us sis so we will strengthen our faith!!

He can look at ALLAH SWT creations as i said in my ex post but hes not allowed to have any doubt about the existence of ALLAH SWT

 

[Danah]

^^ Aren't we humans? Aren't we have our weak faith times? Thats why looking and pondering over Allah's creation is a way to clear up any doubts we may have.

whatever you want, but stop confusing people here please. Try to be very accurate and up to the point and also backed up with proofs.

Allah exists. There is no doubt about His existence. He exists without being attributed with a manner of being (how) or a place. No creation resembles Him, and He is not comparable to any of them. Suratu-Ibrahim, Ayah 10 means, “There is no doubt about the existence of Allah.” The Prophet, sallallahu ^alayhi wa sallam said, “Allah existed eternally, and nothing else existed.” (Related by al-Bukhariyy and others.)​

 

[Hamza Asadullah]

Asalaamu Alaikum Wr Wb, there is no harm in asking questions and seeking answers my sister for people are here to seek advice support and gain some knowledge and not be criticised for doing so.

We should try to help and support them best we can and not let our emotions always take over because we our intentions of being here should be to please Allah and we are merely informers and cannot guide anyone but Allah is the ONLY one who can guide.

Iam frustrate because ADIB1234 is a muslim and as we are muslims we shouldnt have any doubt or questions about ALLAH SWT because ALLAH SWT is the superior and the perfect


These questions like that and you see it normal in your opinion can give a dangerous ideas to other sick mind people to think wrong things so better stop it and go ask for something can help us to to gain ALLAH SWT love and do good deeds

 

[Raudha]

Sister, the brother clarified his intentions here:

yep thats what i mean and i have some other related questions which il ask soon hope our sisters wont be angry

sister it aint a doubt thats a wrong word u used right there, as u see new things our mind wanders but allah is haq, he is there for sure but still u ask to understand it properly

so dont get crazy coz no one is getting crazy

relax sister its not that i have question about existance of allah, offcourse i am a muslim and proud to be and i do have imaan though its weak but still i pray whatever allah wishes to take away from me he can but never take my imaan as its the only thing which will help me in qiyama

and these aint doubts, its just learning hope now u understand what i mean

Perhaps you may have missed that :?

My sister there is nothing wrong with what he asked you have clearly misinterpreted what he has said. Please sister calm yourself and do not let your emotions take over. If there is some haraam said or soemthing contrary to the teachings of Islam then one can make a stand but he has not said anything contrary to Islam at all. Please read carefully next time, jazakallah khayran sister.

 

[linuses]

The belief in only One Creator is not all there is to a proper belief in God. Throughout history, it has been the case that some people stopped at this clear premise and deemed that such was all there was to the belief in God. This beleif is definitely necessary but not sufficient. This belief must be followed up with the rejection of worshipping others instead of God, or along with Him. Then, and only then that a person will be fulfilling what it truly means to believe in One God. The most important message that God revealed to mankind is that there is nothing divine or worthy of being worshipped except Him. This is the very essence of the divine message brought by all the prophets, and it is what Islam really is all about – to worship One God alone.

Brother hamza81 go please to his post and here is his question he said :I want that every member of this board give us one logical reason / fact to understand that there is one god, the one who is omnipotent, all mighty.


He was asking every member of this borad to give him one logical reason /fact to understand that there is one god ?

That mean hes not satisfy and he has a doubt thats why he was asking for reasons next time dont insult me regarding the language because may be i cannot write good english but i understand very good

 

[Raudha]

^That doesn't necessarily mean that he is not satisfied and convinced in the oneness of Allah. He could also be using it to prove to others the unity of Allah.

Think about the people who study the creation of Allah in detail. Did they all do it because they doubted the oneness of Allah? Does Allah encourage only those who doubt His existence and oneness to travel through the earth and observe the beauty and precision of His creation? CERTAINLY NOT eace:

Wa Alykom Asalam warahmatuAllah wa barakatuh sis mariyyah.

You are right, there is no doubt on us muslims about the existence of Allah, but as I said in my post #24 above your post, that we do have our weak moments as human being and the Shaytan came to us whispering to weaken our faith, but when we look around us and ponder over the creation we realize that there is a mighty power behind all of that our iman get increased, thats why Allah gave us minds and brains to think and ponder over what is around us, not only follow blindly.

That mean hes not satisfy and he has a doubt thats why he was asking for reasons next time dont insult me regarding the language because may be i cannot write good english but i understand very good

dear sis in Islam. Please don't misinterpret the brother post. he already said that here:

sister it aint a doubt thats a wrong word u used right there, as u see new things our mind wanders but allah is haq, he is there for sure but still u ask to understand it properly
so dont get crazy coz no one is getting crazy

Sister? if you want, I can translate to you what he meant in Arabic. Just let me know....I will be more than happy to help inshaAllah

[Insecured soul]

Are you saying we are not allowed to ask for logical reasons as to why God exists? By saying such a thing you should provide proof that this is the case. The verses provided so far do not mention this.

Even though the brother has said repeatedly that he has no doubts lets assume for a moment that a Muslim who had geniune doubts asked such a question. By saying he is not allowed to ask it would only make his doubts grow and push him from the faith. By giving him a logical answer based outside of religion we will inshAllah give a push in the right direction.

Lastly there are Muslim philosophers (past and present) who's study and work is based on religion. Is this also not allowed? Avicenna is a good example of a Muslim who lived in the Islamic empire and looked at the existance of God (amongst other things).

 

[bewildred]

In the middle of the night, after hours and hours of wondering if Allah existed, a man went outside his tent. He rose his arms and said:"Allah, please, I want to witness a real miracle".

In a very near tent, a woman gave birth to a baby. The baby started crying. The man, didn't even notice.

"Just a sign you exist". A huge thunder came to break the night's silence.....

"Just one touch, please, Allah!!!". A little butterfly softly caressed his cheek. He chased away with his hands.

He sighed and with a very deep sorrow, he returned to his tent.

 

[THE END]

Assalaam alaikum brothers and sisters.

I want that every member of this board give us one logical reason / fact to understand that there is one god, the one who is omnipotent, all mighty.

.

It is by sound reason i know that God exists,

its obvoius this world is an incredibly organized place. From the human cell and how it develops and is coordinated with the rest of the body, to the incredible precision of the solar system and the earth’s atmosphere.

the universe is not an directionless, uncontrolled, chance collection of matter rather it has a purpose directed towards human life and has been designed with the greatest precision.

Hawkings in his book brief history of time writes

“If the rate of expansion one second after the big bang had been smaller by even one part in a hundred thousand million million, the universe would have recollapsed before it ever reached its present size”

Hence sound reasoning tells me that these are not random events,
and if they are not random, then they are organized,and organization requires someone's specification and power to give specifications and realize them without exception.

The one that has the power to create this incredible cosmos cannot be attributed with any weaknesses.

It is by sound reason i know that That God is one, without a partner or an equal, and is attributed only with attributes of perfection.

having a partner implies need; the need for help, the need to overpower or the need to make concessions. Having a need is a weakness, and the Creator must be free from that.

 

[Woodrow]

I may be reading the question wrong. The way I see the question is it is addressed to those of us who believe there is only one God(swt) and we are being asked to give our understanding as to why we believe there is only one God(swt)

To begin with i will give my reason for knowing there is only one God(swt).

1. Only Allaah(swt) has revealed Himself to us throuh the Qur'an and the Prophets(PBUH) In the Qur'an Allaah(swt) has told us he has no partners or equals. For me that is sufficient to know there is only one God(swt)

Now from my human view point how do I understand there is only one God(swt). God(swt) by definition is omnipotent. If more then one God(swt) existed, he wold not be omnipotent as the powers would be shared. Also as stated in an earlier post if more than one God(swt) existed there would be a stuggle between them and chaos would reign without us ever being created. We were created so we know chaos does not reign, therefore there can only be one God(swt)
