    Peace Anwar Azim, all

    One more question... who/what is "God" to begin with?

    Anwar Azim

    I heard this beautiful quote from a Sunni person I believe. "The moment you begin to think/visualize about God, thats not God anymore"

    Peace

      Anwar Azim

      God is God / He Is Who He Is
      Cos He is uncomparable to anything, besides Himself.

      As a metaphor The mathematical symbol is "infinity" /
      In Math domain Infinity does exist but you cannot tell how much is it or how less is it.

        Another comparison (thank you OPF)

        A computer doesn't know its maker

            Lobster,
            you missed the point.

            The point is, the maker's existence does not depend on the computer's knowledge about him/her.

            Even "insignificant" amount of knowledge about The Creator is appropriately enough for us to believe in God.

              Well at least we can undertand His signs.

              Say "Praise be to God. He will show you His Signs and you will recognise them. Your Lord is not heedless of anything you do." (27.9

              30.20. Among His Signs in this, that He created you from dust; and then,- behold, ye are men scattered (far and wide)!

              30.21. And among His Signs is this, that He created for you mates from among yourselves, that ye may dwell in tranquillity with them, and He has put love and mercy between your (hearts) verily in that are Signs for those who reflect.

              30.22. And among His Signs is the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the variations in your languages and your colours verily in that are Signs for those who know.

              30.23. And among His Signs is the sleep that ye take by night and by day, and the quest that ye (make for livelihood) out of His Bounty verily in that are signs for those who hearken.

              30.24. And among His Signs, He shows you the lightning, by way both of fear and of hope, and He sends down rain from the sky and with it gives life to the earth after it is dead verily in that are Signs for those who are wise.

              30.25. And among His Signs is this, that heaven and earth stand by His Command then when He calls you, by a single call, from the earth, behold, ye (straightway) come forth.

              So maybe we can know God from His signs. !

                that is beautifully said. i also agree that God shows us His signs, if we ask to be made aware of them and be rightly guided. i really think relationships with others, people coming into our lives, are some of the greatest signs. and i find the more i petition God in my own words for guidance and humility, the more signs i see.
