In Islam, Allah is the only real supreme being, all-powerful and all knowing Creator, Sustainer, Ordainer, and Judge of the universe. Islam puts a heavy emphasis on the conceptualization of God as strictly singular (tawhid). God is unique (wahid) and inherently one (ahad), all-merciful and omnipotent. According to tradition there are 99 Names of God (al-asma al-husna lit. meaning: "The best names") each of which evoke a distinct characteristic of God. All these names refer to Allah, the supreme and all-comprehensive divine name. Among the 99 names of God, the most famous and most frequent of these names are "the Compassionate" (al-rahman) and "the Merciful" (al-rahim). Creation and ordering of the universe is seen as an act of prime mercy for which all creatures sing God's glories and bear witness to God's unity and lordship. According to the Islamic teachings, God exists without a place. According to the Qur'an, "No vision can grasp Him, but His grasp is over all vision. God is above all comprehension, yet is acquainted with all things" (Qur'an 6:103) God in Islam is not only majestic and sovereign, but also a personal God: According to the Qur'an, God is nearer to a person than his jugular vein. (Quran 50:16)God responds to those in need or distress whenever they call. Above all, God guides humanity to the right way, “the holy way§.” Islam teaches that Allah is the same god worshiped by the members of other Abrahamic religions such as Christianity and Judaism (29:46).

Asked by Troll in disguise - Mon Mar 17 11:51:21 2008 - - 11 Answers - 0 Comments A. Salam brother, Freedom of speech is a right i value very highly. But to me... it comes with responsibilities and obligations. One of those repsonsabilities is not to hurt or insult some one just for the sake of it, like with the Danish cartoons. Those served no other purpose as to show that 'they just could' hurting and insulting millions of Muslims all over the world. But by responding with violence, Muslims don't do theirselves a favour: on the contrary they confirm what many believe. I live in the Netherlands, a few years back the director Theo van Gogh got violently butchered in the middle of the street in clear daylight by an extrimist Muslim because of his participation in the movie 'Submission'.
