Creator

Had there been other gods besides Allah in the heavens or on the earth, both would have been ruined.

21:22If there were therein gods beside Allah, then verily both (the heavens and the earth) had been disordered. Glorified be Allah, the Lord of the Throne, from all that they ascribe (unto Him).

Among His signs are the night and the day, the sun and the moon. Do not bow to the sun or the moon, but bow to Allah, who created them, if you truly worship Him.

41:37And of His portents are the night and the day and the sun and the moon. Do not prostrate to the sun or the moon; but prostrate to Allah Who created them, if it is in truth Him Whom ye worship.

Say, “Have you considered, if Allah made the night continuous until the Day of Resurrection, who besides Allah could bring you light? Will you not listen?”

28:71Say: Have ye thought, if Allah made night everlasting for you till the Day of Resurrection, who is a god beside Allah who could bring you light? Will ye not then hear?

Say: “Have you seen your partners whom you call besides Allah? Show me what they’ve created on earth. Or do they have a share in the heavens? Or have We given them a book with clear proof?” No, the wrongdoers promise each other nothing but delusion.

31:11This is the Creation of Allah. Now show me that which those (ye worship) beside Him have created. Nay, but the wrong-doers are in error manifest!

35:40Say: Have ye seen your partner-gods to whom ye pray beside Allah? Show me what they created of the earth! Or have they any portion in the heavens? Or have We given them a scripture so they act on clear proof therefrom? Nay, the evil-doers promise one another only to deceive.

Yet they ascribe partners to Allah. Say, “Name them! Or do you presume to inform Him of something unknown on earth? Or are these mere words?”

13:33Is He Who is aware of the deserts of every soul (as he who is aware of nothing)? Yet they ascribe unto Allah partners. Say: Name them. Is it that ye would inform Him of something which He knoweth not in the earth? Or is it but a way of speaking? Nay but their contrivance is made seeming fair for those who disbelieve and they are kept from the right road. He whom Allah sendeth astray, for him there is no guide.

Those you call upon besides Allah cannot create even a fly, even if they all gathered for it. And if the fly snatches something from them, they cannot retrieve it. Weak are both the seeker and the sought.

22:73O mankind! A similitude is coined, so pay ye heed to it: Lo! those on whom ye call beside Allah will never create a fly though they combine together for the purpose. And if the fly took something from them, they could not rescue it from it. So weak are (both) the seeker and the sought!

Allah is the One who created you, then provided for you, then causes you to die, then brings you back to life. Can any of your partners do any of this? Glory be to Him.

30:40Allah is He Who created you and then sustained you, then causeth you to die, then giveth life to you again. Is there any of your (so-called) partners (of Allah) that doeth aught of that? Praised and Exalted be He above what they associate (with Him)!

Do they associate with Him things that create nothing and are themselves created?

7:191Attribute they as partners to Allah those who created naught, but are themselves created,

Or have they assigned partners to Allah who create as He creates, so that creation appears similar to them?

13:16Say (O Muhammad): Who is Lord of the heavens and the earth? Say: Allah. Say: Take ye then (others) beside Him for protectors, which, even for themselves, have neither benefit nor hurt? Say: Is the blind man equal to the seer, or is darkness equal to light? Or assign they unto Allah partners who created the like of His creation so that the creation (which they made and His creation) seemed alike to them? Say: Allah is the Creator of all things, and He is the One, the Almighty.

But if they had associated others with Him, all their deeds would have been in vain.

6:88Such is the guidance of Allah wherewith He guideth whom He will of His bondmen. But if they had set up (for worship) aught beside Him, (all) that they did would have been vain.

So do not compare Allah to anything. Allah knows, while you do not.

16:74So coin not similitudes for Allah. Lo! Allah knoweth; ye know not.

Yet they assign to Him a portion of His servants, man is clearly ungrateful.

43:15And they allot to Him a portion of His bondmen! Lo! man is verily a mere ingrate.
