Faith In Almighty Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ

To be a Muslim, one has to express his or her firm faith in Tawheed ( The Oneness of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ), Most Hight,  and the Prophethood of Prophet Muhammad صَلَّی اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَالِہِ وَسَلَّم.

Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, Most High, is One. There is no partner in His divinity, His works, in His commandments and in His names. Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ is 'Waajib-ul-Wajood' which means that His existence is necessary at all times. His is Eternal (al-Qadeem) and everlasting (al-Baaqi). None but Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ. Most High, is worthy of limitless praise and adoration. He عَزَّوَجَلَّ is dependent on no other. On the contrary, everything in the universe is dependent on Him.

The knowledge of Almighty Allah's Being is beyond all imagination and comprehension. It is indeed impossible to comprehend His Supreme Being by using any amount of wisdom, presentation, intellect or intuition because He is beyond imagination, unbound by any limit. It is only possible to imagine something when it has a definite and circumscribed shape or form. But since Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, Most High, is formless, unbound and unrestricted, any attempt to visualize Him is impossible. 

However one can come to know of the existence of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ the Most High, through human reason and contemplation of His creations. Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ Most High, is neither a father nor a son of anyone; nor has He any spouse. Those who consider Him as a father or a son are disbelievers.

Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, the Most High, all perfections are gathered in Him. He عَزَّوَجَلَّ is pure of all that is impure, defective, cruel, impertinent and indecent. The Presence of any drawback and shortcomings in His being is totally impossible.

Telling a lie, deceiving, misappropriation, savagery, ignorance, gracelessness and many other detestable thing like these, are absolutely impossible as far as Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, Most High, is concerned. Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, Most Exalted, is free from all confines of time and space, places and directions, forms and shapes and all those things that resemble any creation.

It is only the Beloved Prophet Muhammad صَلَّی اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَالِہِ وَسَلَّم who saw Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ with his physical eyes on Mi'raaj. As far as other Prophets عَلَیُھِمْ السَّلَام are concerned, they saw Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, Most Hight, only in meditations and dreams. It is reported that Imam Abu Hanifa رَحْمَۃُاللہِ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہ, the great Jurist Imam, had the divine vision of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, Most Exalted, more than a hundred times in his dreams.

Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, Most High, is the absolute Sovereign: free to do whatever, whenever and however He عَزَّوَجَلَّ Wills. No one can have any control over Him. Nor can anyone distract Him from His insertions. Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ Most High, neither dozes nor sleeps. He Watches over all the worlds. He is never tired, nor is He ever bored. None other then Almighty Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ is the Preserver of the universe. He is more tolerant, benevolent and loving than parents. His mercy and benevolence provides comfort to broken hearts. All the glories and greatnesses are for Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ.
