Allah الله

Learn About Allah, The One and Only God, The Creator and Sustainer of the universe.

There is no god but ALLAH !

Allah is the proper name in Arabic for The One and Only God, The Creator and Sustainer of the universe. It is used by the Arab Christians and Jews for the God (Eloh-im in Hebrew; ‘Allaha’ in Aramaic, the mother tongue of Jesus, pbuh). The word Allah does not have a plural or gender. Allah does not have any associate or partner, and He does not beget nor was He begotten.

The Name Allah was not chosen by man but was revealed and referred to by all the Prophets (peace be on them). Allah was the God worshipped by Adam, Noah, Moses, Abraham and all the other Prophets sent by him.
The name “Allah” consists of two parts, “Al” which is the definitive article in Arabic and “ilah” which means an object to which subservience, love, reverence, and obedience is shown. Being a combination of these two parts, “Allah” signifies the one and only God, the one whom absolute love, reverence and obedience is shown.
One misconception is that Allah is a new or different deity than that mentioned in the Bible or Torah. However, Arab Christians use this word too, and instead of the English word “God” it is Allah which is used in their bible, prayers and daily rituals. In fact, if they did not know English, they would not know who or what a “God” in the English sense was, as they are accustomed to the use of “Allah”. Nor do they use the word “Jesus”, but the same word in Arabic for Jesus which is Isa.
However, the Arab Christians share the same belief about God as other Christians around the world, i.e. that Jesus was his son and the incorrect belief in the Trinity. These beliefs are contrary to those of Islam. As Muslims, we believe that these beliefs are not what Jesus or Gods message in the Bible were intended to be. Allah is the same God that Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses and Jesus worshipped. Furthermore, Islam was the exact same message that was followed and taught by all the Prophets. And they are far from the erroneous and fabricated claims that the Christians and Jews make about them.

{No son (or offspring or children) did Allâh beget, nor is there any ilâh (god) along with Him; (if there had been many gods), behold, each god would have taken away what he had created, and some would have tried to overcome others! Glorified be Allâh above all that they attribute to Him!} [Quran, 23:91]

He is Allah

There is no god but ALLAH !

The First: Nothing is before Him.The Last: Nothing is After Him.The Most High: Nothing is Above Him.The Most Near: Nothing is beyond His Reach.He Begets Not, Nor was He Begotten.The Creator, Provider, and All-Rich.The All-Seer, The All-Knower.He is One and Self-Sufficient.He is not Nature, or any part of it.He ascended above His Throne, High above the Seven Skies.No Vision can encompass Him, butHis Grasp is over all vision…

Who is Allah?

[ Say: "He is Allaah, {the} One. "Allaah us-Samad {self-Sufficient}.

"He begets not, nor was He begotten; "And there is none co-equal or comparable unto Him."] Soorat Al Ikhlaas {112:1-4}

[ Allaah is He Who has created the heavens and the earth and sends down water from the sky, and thereby brought forth fruits as provision for you; and He has made the ships to be of service to you, that they may sail through the sea by His Command; and He has made rivers {also} to be of service to you.] Soorat Ibraheem {14:32}

There is no god but ALLAH !

[ And it is He Who spread out the earth, and placed therein firm mountains and rivers and of every kind of fruits He made Zawjain Ithnain {two in pairs - may mean two kinds or it may mean: of two sorts, e.g. black and white, sweet and sour, small and big, etc.} He brings the night as a cover over the day. Verily, in these things, there are aayaat {proofs, evidences, lessons, signs, revelation, etc.} for people who reflect.] Soorat Ar Ra’d {13:3}

[ Allaah is He Who created you, then provided food for you, then will cause you to die, then {again} He will give you life. Is there any of your {so-called} partners {of Allaah} that do anything of that? Glory be to Him! And Exalted be He above all that {evil} they associate {with Him}.] Soorat Ar Ruum {30:40}

[ And He has made the sun and the moon, both constantly pursuing their courses, to be of service to you; and He has made the night and the day, to be of service to you.] Soorat Ibraheem {14:33}

[ And He gave you of all that you asked for, and if you count the Blessings of Allaah, never will you be able to count them. Verily! Man is indeed an extreme wrong-doer, - a disbeliever {an extreme ingrate, denies Allaah's Blessings by disbelief, and by worshipping others besides Allaah, and by disobeying Allaah and His Prophet Muhammad }.] Soorat Ibraheem {14:34}

[ See they not that Allaah, Who created the heavens and the earth, is Able to create the like of them. And He has decreed for them an appointed term, whereof there is not doubt. But the Dhalimeen {polytheists, oppressors, unjust, and wrong-doers, etc.} refuse {the truth the Message of Islamic Monotheism, and accept nothing} but disbelief.] Soorat Al Israa {17:99}

[ Your Ilah {God} is only Allah, the One. He has full knowledge of all things.]

Soorat Ta Ha {20:98}

[ Allaah is the Light of the heavens and the earth. The parable of His Light is as {if there were} a niche and within it a lamp, the lamp is in glass, the glass as it were a brilliant star, lit from a blessed tree, an olive, neither of the East {i.e. neither it gets sun-rays only in the morning} nor of the West {i.e. nor it gets sunrays only in the afternoon, but it is exposed to the sun all day long}, whose oil would almost glow forth {of itself}, though no fire touched it. Light upon Light! Allaah guides to His Light whom He wills. And Allaah sets forth parables for mankind, and Allaah is All-Knower of everything.] Soorat An Nuur {24:35}

There is no god but ALLAH !

[ Allaah is He Who sends the winds, so they raise clouds, and spread them along the sky as He wills, and then break them into fragments, until you see rain drops come forth from their midst! Then when He has made them fall on whom of His slaves as He will, lo! they rejoice!] Soorat Ar Ruum {30:48}

[ Allaah is He Who created you in {a state of} weakness, then gave you strength after weakness, then after strength gave {you} weakness and grey hair. He creates what He wills. And it is He Who is the All-Knowing, the All-Powerful {i.e. Able to do all things}.] Soorat Ar Ruum {30:54}

[ Allaah it is He Who has created the heavens and the earth, and all that is between them in six Days. Then He Istawa {rose over} the Throne {in a manner that suits His Majesty}. You {mankind} have none, besides Him, as a Wali or an intercessor. Will you not then remember {or be admonished}?] Soorat As Sajdah {32:4}

[ Allaah, it is He Who has made the night for you that you may rest therein and the day for you to see. Truly, Allaah is full of Bounty to mankind, yet most of mankind give no thanks.] Soorat Ghaafir {40:61}

There is no god but ALLAH !

[ Allaah, it is He Who has made for you the earth as a dwelling place and the sky as a canopy, and has given you shape and made your shapes good {looking} and has provided you with good things. That is Allaah, your Lord, then blessed be Allaah, the Lord of the 'alameen {mankind and jinns}.] Soorat Ghaafir {40:64}

[ Do they not see that Allaah, Who created the heavens and the earth, and was not wearied by their creation, is Able to give life to the dead? Yes, He surely is Able to do all things.] Soorat Al Ahqaaf {46:33}

[ He is Allaah, than Whom there is laa ilaaha illa huwa {none deserves to be worshiped but He} the All-Knower of the unseen and the seen {open}. He is the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.] Soorat Al Hashr {59:22}

[ He is Allaah than Whom there is laa ilaaha illa Huwa {none deserves to be worshiped but He} the King, the Holy, the One Free from all defects, the Giver of security, the Watcher over His creatures, the All-Mighty, the Compeller, the Supreme. Glory be to Allaah! {High is He} above all that they associate as partners with Him.] Soorat Al Hashr {59:23}

[ He is Allaah, the Creator, the Inventor of all things, the Bestower of forms. To Him belong the Best Names. All that is in the heavens and the earth glorify Him. And He is the All-Mighty, the All-Wise.] Soorat Al Hashr {59:24}

[ It is Allaah Who has created seven heavens and of the earth the like thereof {i.e. seven}. His Command descends between them {heavens and earth}, that you may know that Allaah has power over all things, and that Allaah surrounds {comprehends} all things in {His} Knowledge.] Soorat At Talaaq {65:12}

[ Allaah! Laa ilaaha illa Huwa {none deserves to be worshiped but He}, the Ever Living, the One Who sustains and protects all that exists. Neither slumber, nor sleep overtake Him. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on earth. Who is he that can intercede with Him except with His Permission? He knows what happens to them {His creatures} in this world, and what will happen to them in the Hereafter. And they will never compass anything of His Knowledge except that which He wills. His Kursi extends over the heavens and the earth, and He feels no fatigue in guarding and preserving them. And He is the Most High, the Most Great.] Soorat Al Baqarah {2:255}

[ Truly, nothing is hidden from Allaah, in the earth or in the heavens. He it is Who shapes you in the wombs as He pleases. Laa ilaaha illa Huwa {none deserves to be worshiped but He}, the All-Mighty, the All-Wise.] Soorat Aal ‘Imraan {3:5-6}

There is no god but ALLAH !

[ Allaah! laa ilaaha illa Huwa {none deserves to be worshiped but He}. Surely, He will gather you together on the Day of Resurrection about which there is no doubt. And who is truer in statement than Allaah?] Soorat An Nisa{4:87}

[ Allaah! laa ilaaha illa Huwa! {none deserves to be worshiped but He} To Him belong the Best Names.] Soorat Ta Ha {20:8}

[ "Verily! I am Allaah! laa ilaaha illa Ana {none deserves to be worshiped but Me}, so worship Me, and perform As-Salat for My Remembrance] Soorat Ta Ha {20:14}

[ And He is Allaah; laa ilaaha illa Huwa {none deserves to be worshiped but He}.

His is all praise, in the first {i.e. in this world} and in the last {i.e.in the Hereafter}. And for Him is the Decision, and to Him shall you {all} be returned.]

Soorat Al Qasas {28:70}

[ "But as for my part {I believe} that He is Allaah, my Lord and none shall I associate as partner with my Lord. It was better for you to say, when you entered your garden: "That which Allaah wills {will come to pass}! There is no power but with Allaah". If you see me less than you in wealth, and children.] Soorat Al Kahf {18:38-39}

[ Say {to these polytheists and pagans}: "Show me those whom you have joined to Him as partners. Nay {there are not at all any partners with Him}! But He is Allaah {Alone}, the All-Mighty, the All-Wise."] Soorat Sabaa {34:27}

[ He has created the heavens and the earth with truth. He makes the night to go in the day and makes the day to go in the night. And He has subjected the sun and the moon. Each running {on a fixed course} for an appointed term. Verily, He is the All-Mighty, the Oft-Forgiving.] Soorat Az Zumar {39:5}

Dua دعا

Ilahi teri chokhat per...

Sarapa faqr hoon, ijz-o-nadamat saath laya hoon,

Bhikari woh ke jis ke paas jholi hai na payala hai,

Bhikari woh jisey hiras-o-hawas nay maar dala hai,

Mata-e-deen-o-danish, nafs ke hathon se lutwa ker.

Sakoon-e-qalb ki daulat hawas ki bhent charha ker,

Lutta ker sari poonji ghaflat-o-issyan ki daldal mein,

Sahara lene aya hoon tere kaabay ke aanchal mein,

Gunahon ki lipatt sey, kaynat-e-qalb afsurda,

Iraaday muzmehehal, himmat shikasta hoslay murda,

Kahan say laoon takat dil ki sachi tarjumani ki,

Ke kis jhanjhal mein guzri hein ghariyan zindagani ki.

Khulasa yeh ke bus jull bhun ker apni roo-sayahi sey

Sarapa faqr ban ker apni haalat ki tabahi sey,

Tere darbar mein laya hoon apni ab zaboon-haali,

Teri chokhat ke laeq har amal se hath hein khali,

Yeh Tera ghar hai ye Tere mehr ka darbar hai Maula

Sarapa noor hai, ik mohbat-e-anwaar hai Mola.

Teri chokhat ke jo adab hein, main unn se khali hoon,

Nahi jis ko saleeqa manganey ka, woh sawali hoon

Zuban ghalt-e-nadamat dil ki na’kas tarjumani per,

Khudaya reham meri iss zaban-e-ijz-zabani per,

Ye ankhein khushk hein, Ya Rabb inhein rona nahi aata,

Sulagtay daagh hein dil mein jinhein dhona nahi aata.

Ilahi teri chokhat per bhikari ban kay aaya hoon,

Sarapa faqr hoon, ijz-o-nadamat saath laya hoon,

Ilahi teri chokhat per bhikari ban ker aya hoon,
