Question 3

How is Allah’s knowledge and presence described in the verses you provided?

Answer 3

• “He created all things and He has full knowledge of all things.”
• Allah’s nature is so subtle and far beyond our limited conception to be invisible to the physical eye and to be imperceptible to the senses.
• His presence can only be felt through the manifestation of His creation and His total control over it.

Question 4

What does Ayat al-Kursi say about Allah’s sovereignty and the concept of Him having a son?

Answer 4

• Ayat al-Kursi mentions that everything belongs to God as He alone is the Master. Since everything is a creation of Allah, the question of His having a son does not arise.
• Allah, unlike humans, is free from all human attributes and far superior to the need to have children or a spouse. “How can He have a son when He has no consort.”
