peace brother sardar,
perhaps it help understanding the nature of names and attributes
1240 "What you serve besides Him are nothing but names which you have fabricated you and your fathers. God did not send down any authority for such. The judgment is for none but God. He ordered that none be served but He. That is the true system, but most of the people do not know."
5922-24 He is God; there is no other god besides Him. Knower of all secrets and declarations. He is the Almighty, the Merciful.He is God; there is no other god besides Him. The King, the Holy, the Peace, the Faithful, the Supreme, the Noble, the Powerful, the Dignified. God be glorified; far above what they set up.He is God; the Creator, the Initiator, the Designer. To Him belong the most beautiful names. Glorifying Him is everything in the heavens and the earth. He is the Noble, the Wise.
God bless you

Thank you brother Imran as i said to me Allah (SWT) is The Lord of the Worlds/Universe which make our Creator, that does mean Allah is The One True God and being a god is highest of the highest which makes Allah not bound by anything, has no limits and makes him truly independent.

You left a lot of empty space huruf. ;D

Peace The Sardar.
It is not a bad idea to answer with nothing but space.
I feel some are not reading the posts . It is like speaking to walls most of the time.
.
You tell them the Messenger only delivers and follows the message. They do not read your post and pretend that the messenger had the hadiths from day 1 and made up volumes of books from the start !!!!You tell them GOD, Allah,Dieu...The creator ,it does not matter what you call the Lord just submit to His system and they do not read your post,they say you are blaspheming by calling Allah GOD!!!
You tell them do not commit adultery,do not take slaves,there is no sex with slaves and they do not read your post,they claim GOD contradicts and abrogates His words!!!!
You tell them fine they are entitled to their views and choices and they do not read your posts ,they just paste nonsense to you and ask you to prove every word of yours!!!!
Never mind brother,it is better to answer them with lots of space. They may read it and ask you to explain it.!!!!
Sister huruf has given me a brilliant idea. GOD bless you sister.
GOD bless you brother too.
Peace. -
I agree with you. I forgot to mention though the quranist claim about pagan origin of word God. He said it has heathen Germanic origin. As i said im not sure if he correct 100%. (Not saying i agree with him.) If someone could research it i would be grateful.

Thankk you the Sardar, for liking my generosity with space. I didn't even know it myself. It sneaked in the post probably wanting to be noticed. Because you see, space is only missed when there is not any. But when there is plenty it hs no way of making himself noticed. So now we know there is space. Let us give it a big applause.
Taling bout noticing, I understandi? your frustration. Some people they just carry on as if they were deaf or could not read. Never mind. There may be others whom we do not notice and may find something useful. nd we do learn. Not everyday, not wonders every day, but we do learn. So everything is fine. And sometimes there is even humour.

There was a another quranist said something that got me very confused, he was not speaking to me by the way, he said that is shirk to believe that Allah is God. I was like what how?, is it being a God highest of the highest (Most High), independent, almighty, also being the Creator & Lord of the Worlds. I didnt respond to him because he was already debating with someone else. To me it make no sense if its shirk to think that Allah (SWT) is God because i found this root word
Alif-Lam-ha = to serve, worship or adore; to protect, grant refuge, preserve save, rescue, liberate; object of worship ie God; (Alif-Lam-Lam-ha) God, the one true God applied as a proper name denoting the true god, comprising all the excellent divine names; a unity comprising all the essences of existing things.

I made a mistake it was the same quranist that i had a conversation with, he was just speaking with someone else. Anyway he said this to the other person (which i will not mention his name) The name/title "G-d" belongs to a Germanic/Teutonic deity. To refer to Allah as "G-d" is shirk. No where does Allah call Himself "G-d". Before you say its just the english translation, tell me the english translation for "Muhammad" (s). There isn't one, and there is no translation for Allah.
Then he said To refer to Allah as "G-d" is a metaphor likening Allah to a false deity, the transliteration of is "Allah". There's no way to get G-o-d out of
People also ask
What is the meaning of the word transliteration?
verb. 1. (transitive) to transcribe (a word, etc, in one alphabet) into corresponding letters of another alphabet. does not correspond with "G-0-D".In Qur'an He calls Himself , no where does he refer to Himself as "G-0-D". Many Muslims have fallen in the trap of using this false name, in order to gain acceptance from Judaeo-Christians.
Next he said "G-d" is the name/title of a false deity. Then he showed the picture that i shown in the first page
https//scontent-arn2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/19424284_10209442930254605_5371361913832599540_n.jpg?oh=a449942d890e95c0b166a54766d355d8&oe=59C85468
Then i spoke to him If Allah (SWT) is not God then what is he? Allah called himself Lord of the worlds? Forgive me but your promoting athiesm are you? This is getting confusing i hope im not being decieved. By the way i dont see God bound by any religion nor Judeo-Christian nor worshipped but to serve God through good deeds such helping the poor, needy and opressed. And i cant speak nor read arabic by the way.
Then he responed I am NOT SAYING that is not Creator of Heavens, Earth, and Mankind, and I am NOT promoting atheism. My point is the name/title "G-d" is the name of a heathen Germanic deity. and g-d are not the same Entity/Force/Being.
Then i said Dont worry brother im not accusing you im just confused thats all. So from what i see what your saying is that Allah is the Creator of the Heavens, Earth, and Mankind but you are saying the word God is heathen. Okay interesting, sorry misunderstanding. Obviously im a monotheist but i dont worship through rituals but do service to our Beloved Unbegotten Creator. (Which he liked the comment, this on facebook by the way.)
And last i said BUT! Im not sure if you are 100% correct about word God has heathen origins. From my point of view Our Lord (SWT) is highest of the highest and there is nothing like our beloved Almighty Creator. Only Allah (SWT) can answer that question 4060 Your Lord has said, "Call upon Me and I shall respond to you. Surely, those who are too arrogant to serve Me, will enter Hell, disgraced."
And he did not responded since then.
-
Just letting you know im not agreeing with him, it just made me thinking.
-
i think i have a slight idea who you are talking about..
ask him is arabic is his native language? , and the reply will make you understand the worth of his claim..
if he said to you "yes" its my native language then dnt forget to ask the evidence.. some people are lazy in giving evidences..perhaps they dnt have it..
and by calling myself quranist will not make me quranist.
same goes with muslim ,christian, jew and sunni shia..you are what you believe in from core.
using a term "quranist" is dangerous the only system is islam(peacemaking) infront of God..
-
But what if he shows arabic words, i cant read arabic. By the way i asked him that question now i may let you know when he responds because im not good with debating.
-
Peace The Sardar.
The simple answer is do not debate him. Say he has his understanding and you have yours.
GOD s words are debating everyone for you. GOD showed Abraham how to debate with folks.
The best debate is in Qoran ,if anyone fails to see it,then your debate is going to make zero impact.
Allah is an Arabic word,Dieu is a French word, GOD is an English word...etc If you look the bible up you find the Arabic word for GOD is Allah even before Qoran. I do not see any issue.
If anyone says to you in any language "Allah" is the name of GOD and you cannot change it,say do you treat Allah like humans/animals and give him a special name? GOD forbid Allah/GOD/Dieu.... is unlike any of His creatures to be given a special name? All the good names are befitting Allah.
Hence if you speak to him about GOD in Arabic use Allah,in French use....etc.
My view brother.
GOD bless you.
Peace. -
Now there is another guy commented on the post i was speaking to the man though he was not speaking to me.
He said When we consider something separate from us it becomes an object or a deity. Worshiping any object even if it is "God" is not acceptable and is tantamount to shirk and Allah is not a deity. La ilaha ilallah.
That left me so confused.
-
Um hello?

RED ask the evidence?
specially if there is something you can compare to true God (ch 112)BLUE , there is no diety but Allah.
God is not an object , using this word object for God is not suitable ..worship people take it as "ritual" to any diety or thing..
the word "ibada" mean to serve ..
serving Allah is not shirk.. serving true God is not shirk..
willingly or unwillingly everything in heavens and earth is serving God..GREEN no need to get confuse.. in fact the nature of God is beyond the perception of human mind.. so i guess your brother is also a human being like us.. he dnt have a built in super human mind to understand the nature of God.. peace
simple serving is to obey his commands that generate a peacemaking atmosphere around us..

You know something i noticed when he said La ilaha ilallah, he missed one last word la ilaha illa HUWA, which means there is no god but He. That means Allah (SWT) is denies false gods but saying he is The One True God. (If i get that right because thats what im seeing.)
-
there are lot of other examples like this.
Allahu la ilaha illahuwa alhayyu alqayyoomu
Allah, there is no god except He, the Living/the Sustainer/EVERLASTING
