Hey!

I am from BC, Canada!

How is this 'body' omnipresent? I certainly must have missed it.

How do you take 679? If 'face' is indeed always literal..We must understand that The Quran is to be read/understood by humans. Humans who have two hands, a face...

By saying that Allah can't have a face, one is already limiting Allah's unlimited attributes. I did say that Allah's body is transcendent after all, did I not? I made no reference whatsoever that Allah's body is mortal, fleshly, or whatever. His body is a spiritual body, and as such it has been revealed in the Qur'an very plainly.

I am not very intelligent, I know that's for sure. But when something is said in the Qur'an, I try to accept it in its plainness as much as possible, unless it is clearly made into a metaphor or simile.

I believe that Allah is the Supreme Person, and I take the Qur'an rather literally... I do not understand why is it so hard to accept that Allah has a transcendental body! It says clearly that Allah has two hands, that He has a throne, that He has a face, etc. But that only shows that Allah is limitless and beyond our human comprehension or mortality. He is the Supreme Lord and the Supreme Person, with unlimited features and full of variegatedness.

I used to believe in metaphors... but I accept the Qur'an as a revelation from Allah alone, and whatever He says, is.
