What is the sex of God and why is he mentioned in the Qur’an in the singular and sometimes in the plural

  • What is the sex of God and why is he mentioned in the Qur’an in the singular and sometimes in the plural

πŸƒ Allah = Has no gender (not male and not female)
"He" is used only out of respect and dignity - not for gender
Allah = Always singular - Never plural
"We" is used only as the "Royal WE" just as in English for royalty
πŸƒ Allah = Means "The Only One to be Worshipped"

one cannot apply a gender to God in the usual sense, as God's attributes cannot be compared to those of any other being.Thus, the idea of a "divine gender" is ultimately considered an analogy.

Exalted be Allah above  does not have any rival or peer, spouse or child.ِ

(interpretation of the meaning): πŸ‘‡ )

( 1 )   Say, "He is Allah, [who is] One,
( 2 )   Allah, the Eternal Refuge.
( 3 )   He neither begets nor is born,
( 4 )   Nor is there to Him any equivalent."
Quran 112

So, we say what Allah says about Himself, may He be exalted, cannot be described as masculine or feminine in any true sense;rather that (use of the masculine pronoun) is necessary for the purpose of communication in human languages and what people need in communicating ideas about Allah.
