Can Allah Create ANYTHING?
-
I've always liked the saying "do not judge a person by their answer but by their questions".
Anyways, OPF, I am not familiar with 0 dimension but I assume it would be impossible to gauge any kind of lifting in such a dimension, thus my point still stands.
No, you can "lift".
I mean, the universe was thought to have been 0 dimensional at the start of time as we know it. But quite clearly, that's a heavy rock, and God "lifted" it yay

Allah must be limited, if she can't do those 'paradoxical' things then she is not all-powerful, and she obviously is limited. Coz if she could do those things then she would be 'unlimited'.
Why do you give God a gender?
"He" that refers to God is generic, not gender -
Questions can never be stupid Rasul, only the answers
If one cannot see the stupidity of the question and questioner then one's answer would definitely become one!

For young people, these tricky paradoxes can be very confusing. And mocking someone is never the Muslim way.

Why are you calling The God, she?
The God is not male nor female.The God is in control of everything therefore The God decides what will be a paradox and what will be logical, right? So, since God is in control of everything, God will decide if paradox shall even exist and in this case paradox exists.
God can create everything, including a rock of any size but The God will always, ALWAYS be above it, bigger then it, because everything has a limit except God.
God has no limits and therefore can be here and there at the same time.The God knows best.
Peace.

The God is not male nor female.have you even read this thread properly coz i've already given the answer to that question.
yea i know god does not have a gender.
But people always refer to God as a "he" so I thought I would use "she" instead.
And "he" is misleading, I know so many muslims that believe god is a guy.
If you have a problem with me calling god a "she" then just say so.

God has no limits and therefore can be here and there at the same time.Since God is 'unlimited' then she can create a rock bigger them herself?? If she can't create a rock bigger then her self then she is limited?

Arnold Yasin answered it...

Can Allah create a rock so heavy that even he couldn't lift it?
(If you have a panthiestic view of Allah then ignore my question)
In Arizona we have the "Could god make a burrito so hot that he couldn't eat it?" joke. I actually wondered about the paradox, and I was baffled. So I came to the conclusion that God would have cooled it down to the perfect eating temperature before eaing it.

What?? They believe that God has male sexual reproductive organs???

Here's another paradox, can God willingly suspend His Godhood and take on human limitations for a while? According to Christians, He can, that's what they believe about Jesus.
P.S. These paradoxes are pointless. Allah is All-Powerful, and He can do whatever He wants, but what He wants is not always the same as what He can do (which is anything).

These paradoxes are beautiful exercises in logic and are a good way of finding out what God "is" as opposed to what you want God to "be".

I do not think God /Allah cares if you say he/she as long as you believe. I think that is the biggest problem between people they all think they are right and to me God/Allah is the only one that is right. I wish we could all just enjoy God/Allah regardless if you call God/Allah him/her. God/Allah can create anything in my opinion.

One of the things that helped satisfy me on the issue of the 'divine femine' was
the notion that Jesus had a daughter named Sara...If God was to continue the blood line of Jesus in a daughter instead of a son
it continues to underscore the equality of the male and the female in God's eyes...The Quran seems to indicate to me, that God is far to LARGE to have
sons or daughters, and is critical of those who say that the Angels have
female names..The Gospel of Thomas has a controversal verse in it where Jesus
is to have said that a Woman needs to become a Man...It is all too confusing to me to really understand...
But I have some solice in the Idea of Sara being the first
in the blood line of Jesus...
