allah is everywhere |
Allah is the proper name
applied to the true God who exists necessarily by Himself comprising all the
excellent Divine names and attributes of perfection. Allah is One and Unique.
He has no son, no partner, nor equal. He is the sole Creator and Sustainer of
the universe.
"There is no one to
share His dominion, nor does He take an aide or supporter from His creatures.
He is nearer to man than man's own jugular vein."
Proof from the Qur'an
Allah, the Exalted,
commands the believers to refer their disputes and differences to His Book and
the Sunnah of His Messenger sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam saying:
"And when you differ in
anything among yourselves, refer it to Allah and His Messenger, if you believe
in Allah and the Last Day."
Some people imagine that they
themselves, matter and the world they see all around them are all absolute
beings. But they regard Allah (surely He is beyond that) as an imagination
pervading that absolute matter. Or else, since they cannot see Him with their
own eyes, they say: “Allah must be somewhere we cannot see, in space or far
away from human eyes.”
Because Allah is everywhere,
not just in the sky. As the sole absolute being, Allah enfolds the whole
universe, all people and places, the heavens and everywhere. And Allah is
manifested in the whole universe. According to the hadith, our Prophet (saas)
said that someone who said that Allah was in the sky was telling the truth. But
this account in no way conflicts with the fact that Allah is everywhere.
We must not also
forget that Allah is unfettered by time and space. Allah’s self is something
different. But the manifestations of Allah are everywhere.
