What should be the belief of Muslims about Allah?
It should be the firm belief of Muslims that Allah is
One; He has no partner whatsoever; He alone is worthy of worship; neither He
begot nor He is begotten and none is comparable or equal to Him in any way.
Allah possesses every kind of superiority and every attribute of
perfection and no defect and deficient attribute whatsoever exists in Him.
He is all free and independent and all the worlds are subservient to
Him.
He is ”Eternal in the beginning and Eternal in the end” when there
was nothing He was and when there will be nothing He will be. His attributes
are also eternal like His ”Eternal Person”
He is ”Haie-yu Qaie-yoom”. He is eternally immortal and keeps His
creatures alive. He gives life and causes death as and when He wills.
He is ”Qadeer” i.e. All Powerful (Omnipotent) and has absolute
dominion over everything. He does what He wills. There is
none to dominate Him.
He is Samee’ (All Hearing). He hears voice of His every creature
even the sound of creeping of an ant and of the movement of wings of a
mosquito.
He is ”Baseer” (All Seeing). He sees everything regardless of
big or small, near or distant and in light or in dark. Nothing is hidden
from Him.
He is ‘Aleem (All Knowing, Omniscient). He knows each and everything
irrespective of what is happening, what has happened and what will happen. He
knows our words, deeds, intentions and what is hidden in our breast. Even
the tiniest particle of dust is not beyond His
Omniscience.
All men and matter are subservient to His will. Each and
everything happens according to His will and nothing takes place against His
will. Even no bird can fly and particle of sand move without His will.
He alone is the Creator of everything. What we do is all the creation
of Allah. He is the Sole Creator of all the worlds and of whatever they
contain irrespective of big or small. If He wills to create anything He
simply says “Kun” (be) and that immediately comes into being.
He is “Razzaaq” (Provider of Subsistence). He provides subsistence,
livelihood and all necessary things to His creatures regardless of mankind
and animals and big or small to sustain them, He alone is the Sovereign Lord of
all the universe.
He also speaks. All the revealed books including the Glorious Quraan are his “Kalaam” (speech, words).
With which thing(s) does Allah Almighty see and hear?
The attributes of Allah are as much unique and subtle as He is Himself. Undoubtedly, He sees, hears and speaks but unlike humanbeings since He is free of the organs of sight, hearing and speech and so is His “Kalaam” which does not need letters and sounds.
Who is the Creator, Controller, Maintainer and Owner of the whole world?
He is One Allah. He alone is the Supreme Creator of everything irrespective of mankind (all creatures) and their actions. He alone controls the whole universe and causes the evolution and transformation of His creatures from one condition into other thereby to develop them to the perfection. He creates actions (to be done till the end of time) with His Wisdom and Command. He is the Owner of the earth and the sky. We are His mere servants. Our entity and everything belongs to Him. All these wonders and phenomena of the earth and the sky which defy human attainment and science are self-proofs of the fact that all these things have neither come into being by themselves nor can sustain unless created and sustained by the All-powerful Creator and Sustainer Who can be none but Allah alone, the Unique, the Subduer, the Lord of Majesty and Bounty.
When I want to talk to Allah I say prayers and when I want that he talk to me I recite quran- Hazrath Ali(ra)
