Tawhid (7)

Tawhid - Descriptions of Allah

Allah is formless and cannot be seen

Vision comprehendeth Him not, but He comprehendeth (all) vision. He is the Subtile, the Aware.

Quran 6.103

See also: Quran 42.11

Allah is a monad

Say: He is Allah, the One! Allah, the eternally Besought of all! He begetteth not nor was begotten. And there is none comparable unto Him.

Quran 112.1-4

One God, with one person, who is eternally unapproachable.

Allah has no partner (and to suggest otherwise is unforgivable)

Lo! Allah forgiveth not that a partner should be ascribed unto Him. He forgiveth (all) save that to whom He will. Whoso ascribeth partners to Allah, he hath indeed invented a tremendous sin.

Quran 4.48

See also: Quran 4.116

Allah is the originator of both good and evil

What is amiss with these people that they come not nigh to understand a happening?

Quran 4.78

Allah determines all that is good, or evil

Thy Lord bringeth to pass what He willeth and chooseth. They have never any choice. Glorified be Allah and Exalted above all that they associate (with Him)!

When Allah saith: O Jesus, son of Mary! Remember My favour unto thee and unto thy mother; how I strengthened thee with the holy Spirit, so that thou spakest unto mankind in the cradle as in maturity; and how I taught thee the Scripture and Wisdom and the Torah and the Gospel; and how thou didst shape of clay as it were the likeness of a bird by My permission,...

Quran 5.110

Muslims are encouraged to believe in the Holy Spirit, but it is not clear what they understand this Holy Spirit to be, if not divine.

The faithful will see Allah

That day will faces be resplendent,
