Who is Allah

A fundamental pillar of faith in Islam is the declaration that "There is no God worthy of worship but the One True and Almighty God" (Arabic:

"La ilaha ill Allah").

Nature of God

The Quran says that Allah is Merciful and Merciful. He is kind, loving, and smart. He is the Creator, Sustainer and Healer. He guides, protects and forgives. Traditionally, there are 99 names or attributes used by Muslims to describe the nature of Allah.

"God of the Moon"?

When asked who Allah is, some non-Muslims mistakenly think that Allah is the "Arab God", the "God of the Moon", or some kind of idol. Allah is the real name of the only true God used in Arabic by Muslims around the world. Allah is a name that is neither feminine nor masculine and cannot be pluralized (except God, Gods, Goddesses, etc.). Muslims believe that there is nothing in heaven or on earth worthy of worship except Allah, the only true Creator. Islam is based on the concept of Tawhid or the Oneness of God. Islam is strictly monotheistic and categorically rejects attempts to make God visible or human. Islam rejects all forms of idolatry, even if the intention is to "get closer" to God, and rejects any attempt to humanize the Trinity or the eternal and absolute God.

He is neither born nor will he be born. And nothing compares to him. Quran 112:

Muslims understand that God is beyond our sight and understanding, but at the same time "nearer to us than our jugular veins" (Quran 50:

16 ). Muslims pray directly to God without intermediaries and seek guidance from Him alone. Because "...Allah knows the secrets of your heart." In the Qur'an, people are encouraged to look for signs of Allah in nature. . The balance of the world and the rhythm of life are "signs for those who want to believe".

Orbits of the planets, cycles of life and death, seasons, mountains and rivers, mysteries of the human body. This order and balance is neither arbitrary nor accidental. The world and everything in it was created in a perfect plan by Allah, who knows all.

Islam is a natural faith, a religion of responsibility, purpose, balance, discipline and simplicity. Being a Muslim means living your life in remembrance of Allah and striving to follow His merciful guidaParaphrased Text
