Allah is the One and Only God. What does Non-Muslim know about Allah? Who is Allah? What is Allah? Well let us all know.
Allah is
the God that Muslim worship, He is not neither born nor begotten. Allah doesn’t
have and shapes, size, measure, image or anything. Muslim believe that only
after the Judgement days that Allah can be seen. Allah didn’t live in any castle, palace or
house (like some Greek Gods live), or doesn’t live in any place. He is the
ruler. He can be anywhere He wants to. Allah knows everything, not every single
thing happening in this universe not known to Him.
If
there’s a Muslim who doesn’t believe in Allah, or believe that there is other
God beside Allah, his believe is not true according to true Muslim’s belief. All
Muslim believe that Allah is the only God that has powers on all of things, all
of happenings. In Arabic it is called Tauhid
al-Rububiyyah, meaning “Believing that only Allah can creates, have powers
and control over everything” The word “have powers and control over everything”
can be explained that only Allah create human, animals, insects, trees, plants,
the mountains, the clouds, earth, moon, other planets, our universe, galaxy and
many other things such as disease, nature, virus, rain, and everything. He is
the one that creates, rule, govern, own, and can destroy it when the correct
time comes (judgement day).

Another belief of Muslim is called Tauhid al-Uluhiyyah, or can be translated as “Believing that only Allah is the true God that Muslim had to know, approve, and worship, there’s no other God beside Allah and no other things equal to be worshipped as Allah”. This can be said that if there’s a Muslim believe that Allah had a subordinate, a demi-God (half god) or other God equal, lower or powerful than Allah than this belief is wrong. Totally, totally wrong!!!
Question
been asked, why only one God? Isn’t it easier for God or Allah to have many
subordinates God to help in controlling the universe, the world? OK let’s talk
and discuss about this logically.
Let’s say
there is a country called Country A. This Country A has a government, and the
country rules stated that the one who rule the country is the most powerful
person in charge, the President. OK get the idea so far? What if there are two
Presidents in Country A, who is the most powerful one? President X and
President Y surely both cannot have full powers, right? Not having full powers
means that they are not powerful yet, and by sharing powers also mean they are
not so powerful because they both share and depend on each other.
So change
this President title into God, and you will get the same idea. No God is
powerful enough if that God have to depend on others, and not powerful enough
if that God have to share power with other God. Remember Hercules story where
Zeus were defeated by Hades, even though Zeus is the most powerful God of
Greek. Shame isn’t it? Right? That is not the true image of a powerful God.
That is why for Islam, and Muslim, and advisable to all non Muslim to accept
that Allah is the One and Only God, the Most Powerful.
