Who created God?

"Say: He is Allah, the One!, Allah, the Eternal, Absolute; He begetteth not, nor is He begotten; And there is none like unto Him. (Quran chapter 112)".
This surah or chapter is the greatest surah in the Quran, As this surah mentions Allah or God is eternal and Absolute; meaning he has neither beginning nor an end. This is a very important statement, because anything that has a beginning has an end and must have a creator. Allah does not have a creator and thus He is not created, He has no father, son or any partner, He is absolutely one and there is nothing like him. He is the originator of time and matter and His existence is forever. If we keep asking who created who, there won’t be an end to this question, so there must be someone who is uncreated, eternal, no beginning or an end, and is not dependent upon anything. We call this creator Allah or God.

Our Existence, an accident?

“Were they created of nothing, or were they themselves the creators?" (Quran chapter 52 verse 35)
God Almighty draws our attention to a very important question for this 21st century. If we think about how we came to existence by going back to the Big bang theory, there are couple of questions that needs to be answered, we have a big explosion out of "nothing" which means there was no space, time, matter etc, so how can an explosion happen from nothing? To make an explosion energy is required, where did this energy come from? So are we really created out of nothing? The answer for this is yes, there was an explosion but someone caused that explosion and God said: “Do not the Unbelievers see that the heavens and the earth were joined together (as one unit of creation), before we clove them asunder? We made from water every living thing. Will they not then believe? ” (Quran chapter 21 verse 30) or did we create our own selves as God mentions in the second part? The obvious answer is No, because still we don’t know so many mechanisms in our body and we know very little about the complex Brain. If we really are the owners and creators of our body, then stop blinking and breathing, after a while without your will, your eyes will blink and you will breath, its involuntary, we are not the ones who designed and made it that way. When we are hungry, thirsty and in pain the body gives out signals, when we are ready to fight our body prepares for it, of course these are due to the hormones, who designed those hormones to function so perfect? Our body is a gift given by God. Our body is exactly like a car and we are the drivers, we do not own this car and if we drive how ever we want we will be questioned by the owner of that car and we will be punished. Be careful! One day you will be questioned by the one who created you.

Signs

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

(Quran chapter 30 verse 20-25)

Rules


Every where there are rules and regulations, Schools have rules, offices have rules, governments have rules, families have rules, so what about LIFE?? Shouldn’t there be rules for life,
One might say we can make our own rules for life, like we make for schools and office etc, but schools and offices are places we build, organizations we make, in other words something we create on our own, but we are not the one's who created life, so we are not the ones who are suppose to make the rules, the one who created life makes the rules.

Servants of God


And the servants of (Allah) Most Gracious are those who walk on the earth in humility, and when the ignorant address them, they say, "Peace!";

Those who spend the night in adoration of their Lord prostrate and standing;

Those who say, "Our Lord! avert from us the Wrath of Hell, for its Wrath is indeed an affliction grievous,-

"Evil indeed is it as an abode, and as a place to rest in";

Those who, when they spend, are not extravagant and not niggardly, but hold a just (balance) between those (extremes);

Those who invoke not, with Allah, any other god, nor slay such life as Allah has made sacred except for just cause, nor commit fornication; - and any that does this (not only) meets punishment.

(But) the Penalty on the Day of Judgment will be doubled to him, and he will dwell therein in ignominy,-

Unless he repents, believes, and works righteous deeds, for Allah will change the evil of such persons into good, and Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful,

And whoever repents and does good has truly turned to Allah with an (acceptable) conversion;-

Those who witness no falsehood, and, if they pass by futility, they pass by it with honourable (avoidance);

Those who, when they are admonished with the Signs of their Lord, droop not down at them as if they were deaf or blind;

And those who pray, "Our Lord! Grant unto us wives and offspring who will be the comfort of our eyes, and give us (the grace) to lead the righteous."

Those are the ones who will be rewarded with the highest place in heaven, because of their patient constancy: therein shall they be met with salutations and peace,

(Quran chapter 25 verse 63-75)

Law of Gravity

"Gravity explains the motions of the planets, but it cannot explain who set the planets in motion. God governs all things and knows all that is or can be done" (Sir Issac Newton)
