Is God everywhere in his power and knowledge only or is He also present Himself

Peace,
All the things you mentioned are emotions and it is very subjective, it is something only you experience. For example, Christians claim to feel the love of Jesus and that is why their religion is true. This is the problem with humans is that we are very capricious, easy to go back-and-forth.
This is why we must use reason when it comes to God. God states in the Quran that He gave us the eyes, ears, and the faculties to understand the world around us. It is with this logic that we come to the path of Submission, not by our emotions. I can remember as a kid crying at a pastor giving a sermon. Similarly, many people are duped by teleevangelists and feel the "Spirit" and give out their paychecks to "sow a seed" in God's Kingdom. Obviously, this is just their emotions speaking, no truth in it whatsoever.
We should be careful when allocating these feelings to God.
Peace

God is omnipresent
{186}
And when My servants ask you concerning Me, then surely I am very near; I answer the prayer of the suppliant when he calls on Me, so they should answer My call and believe in Me that they may walk in the right way.{16}
And certainly We created man, and We know what his mind suggests to him, and We are nearer to him than his life-vein.To say God is not present is to diminish His presence without understanding how it works. Pay attention to the signs of the moment, God gives us signs ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS. For example I sat down the other way to read over my notes. God blew the wind to the pages He wanted me to read. So I read them and I was happy.
God is present everywhere an artist draws a painting and gives his painting away. Wherever the painting goes, the artist's touch is present. When you watch a film, you know person X directed the film. Their touch is present directly. God is on the throne, but that does not preclude His presence, rather it supports it.

Allah not being omnipotent ( and thus omnipresent and omniscient ) is greatly illogical and I refuse to believe in such kind of creator. He definitely is everywhere and knows everything and has unlimited power

Shalom,
For those who cant accept that God may not be everywhere physically
Its like rejecting the CEO of microsoft/tesco/hsbc/etc on the basis that they are not present in every brunch. Come on, if creations can create UAVs that fly over a terrorists home day/night and keep track of him 24/7 and hold the power to destroy the terrorist at the click of a button from thousands of miles away........ just imagine what technology the creator uses. Why is it necessary for HIM to hang around everything ? That kind of sounds INFERIOR to be honest.
It reminds me of the a carton where they were mocking the hindu godess Durga. Durga was shown to be sitting in the core of the earth and pressing buttons with her 9 hands tirelessly. This is primitive a very perception of CONTROL.
I say, to Him belongs the domination of heaven and the earth and the things you know and the thing you dont know, even without Him having to press a single button.

Manners and behavior according to God's Commands in Quran.
You dont have it.
Peace.
What?

Peace. One of my arguments as to why God would not be present Himself inside of us is hell. I mean think about it, is he going to burn Him self for eternity. There is no way that God of the Quran is going to do something like that!
Thanks
