Who is Allah - Who is Muhammad


Who is Allah?

To Him belongs all the universe. He has no partner in His kingdom. He is the judge of the day of judgment. Allah defines Himself in one Aya which is the greatest Aya of all Ayats (verses) saying:

((Allah – there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer of [all] existence. Neither drowsiness overtakes Him nor sleep. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who is it that can intercede with Him except by His permission? He knows what is [presently] before them and what will be after them, and they encompass not a thing of His knowledge except for what He wills. His Kursi extends over the heavens and the earth, and their preservation tires Him not. And He is the Most High, the Most Great.)) 

Surat Al Baqara. 255. 

Allah the creator of existence, has no partner in his creation. He is not a man nor son of man. Has no son or family.

When He wants to create something He says to it be and it is.

He has no plural, no gender and nobody can encompass Him but He encompasses all that exists.

He is infallible has no defects not born and didn’t beget. He is all powerful, the fashioner and great designer of universe as modern science calls Him.

He is the Merciful but at the same time the most Powerful.

Allah is the deity to whom worship should ONLY be attributed. He is One and unique in all his Oness of Lordship, Godship, Names, Attributes and actions. 

He is a supreme, uncomparable and beyond measure being. 

We believe in Allah without images known to us but known only by Him.

We know from prophetic sayings that are preserved like the qur’an that God has eyes face, leg, foot. etc. However, whatever comes to your mind God is unlike it. 

That's because He said in the Qur’an ; ((Nothing is like Him but he’s all Seeing all Hearing))

Some diverted sects may thing  Allah speaks but with an unheard voice (Ashaariya), others think God is everywhere?! (Soffi or Pantheists) which is really a total falacy because we are told 7 times in the Noble Quran that Allah ELEVATED or ESTABLISHED on His Throne over the 7th Heaven. Other sects assimilate God to His creation or negate His beautiful Names. 

However, briefly, nobody can lead you to Allah except "Sunna and Consensus" group especially the moderate Salafi one calling to Him with clear and authentic proofs from Quran and Sunnah. They are mainstream and majority all over the world.

Before I end my explanation, I must say that Allah does not compel anybody to enter Islam but grants humanity free will to choose for themselves, but he will judge us due to the mind he gave us.

Also, believing in Allah requires from us to apply His command which is the implementation of faith (application of amonotheism through deeds)


#Who_is_Muhammad_long

(peace be upon him)?
“Indeed in the Messenger of Allah you have an excellent example to follow for whoever hopes in Allah and the Last Day and remembers Allah much.”
Qur’an 33:21
Muslims believe that Muhammad (peace be upon him) is the final Prophet in a long chain of Prophets sent to call the people to the obedience and worship of God alone (‘Allah’ in Arabic). Some of these Prophets include Adam, Noah, Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, David, Solomon and Jesus (peace be upon them all).
Just as Moses (peace be upon him) was sent with the Torah (the original uncorrupted revelation sent to Moses) and Jesus (peace be upon him) with the Gospel (the original, uncorrupted revelation – not the present-day versions), Muslims believe that Muhammad (peace be upon him) was sent with the Qur’an to demonstrate how its teachings should be applied.
The Prophet’s (peace be upon him) wife, ‘A’isha, was once asked to describe the Prophet (peace be upon him), and she replied that “his character was a reflection of the Quran” (Muslim, 40), meaning he meticulously implemented the noble teachings of the Qur’an into his daily life. We will demonstrate how he translated these noble teachings into noble actions.
? Mission of Mercy :-
“And We (God) have not sent you (Muhammad) except as a mercy for mankind.”
Qur’an 21:107
As well as calling people to pray, fast and give charity, the Prophet (peace be upon him) taught that one’s faith in God should also affect one’s treatment of others. He said: 
“The best of you are they who have the best character.”
Many sayings of the Prophet (peace be upon him) emphasise the relationship between belief and action, for example: 
“Whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day, should not hurt his neighbour, and whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day, should serve his guest generously, and whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day, should speak what is good or keep quiet.”
The final Messenger (Peace be upon him) taught humans to show mercy and to respect each other: 
“He who does not show mercy to others, will not be shown mercy.”
In another narration, some people requested the Prophet (peace be upon him) to invoke God to punish the disbelievers but he replied: 
“I have not been sent as one to curse but as a mercy.”
