Knowing Allah Taala by believing in Him

   The Belief in Allรขh is the faith and the certain dogma that He is the Lord, Owner, and Creator all of what exists. And it is to believe that He is the only One who deserves to be worshipped, and He is the One who has the Perfect Descriptions which is far above defects and deficiency in addition to adherence to it in word and deed.


Belief in Allรขh includes four subjects:


First: the belief in His Existence


Human nature, mind, Shariโ€™a, and common sense prove this fact.


1-
Evidence of human nature on the Existence of Allรขh: every creature is created in a pattern that he has a Creator without any previous planning or learning. And no one is ever distorted from this pattern except those who were subjected to effecting incidents. For the Prophet says, โ€œู…ุง ู…ู† ู…ูˆู„ูˆุฏ ุฅู„ุง ูŠูˆู„ุฏ ุนู„ู‰ ุงู„ูุทุฑุฉโ€ - meaning โ€“ โ€œNo child is born except on Al-Fitrah (Islรขm) and then his parents make him Jewish, Christian or Magian.โ€


2-
Evidence of human mind on the Existence of Allรขh: this is illustrated in the fact that all of these creatures -preceding and succeeding- must have a Creator in order to exist, because they can not create themselves and they can not be created by chance as well. And what Allรขh said assures it, โ€œุฃูŽู…ู’ ุฎูู„ูู‚ููˆุง ู…ูู†ู’ ุบูŽูŠู’ุฑู ุดูŽูŠู’ุกู ุฃูŽู…ู’ ู‡ูู…ู’ ุงู„ู’ุฎูŽุงู„ูู‚ููˆู†ูŽโ€ - meaning โ€“ {Were they created of nothing, or were they themselves the creators?}.


3-
Evidence of Islรขmic Legislation on the Existence of Allรขh. This is because all Holy Books confirm this fact, and the Divine Laws which have been descended including the best advantage to the creation is the strongest evidence that it descended from an All-Wise All-Knower Lord Who knows best about their benefits. Moreover, all what we see and hear about these universal signs is a true evidence that it came from a Lord Who is Able to do anything He told about.


4-
Evidence of the common sense on the Existence of Allรขh is illustrated in two ways:


First one: we often see and hear the response to those who invoke and call upon Allรขh for help, the matter that proves certainly His Existence. This is mentioned clearly in the Qurโ€™รขn: โ€œูˆูŽู†ููˆุญู‹ุง ุฅูุฐู’ ู†ูŽุงุฏูŽู‰ ู…ูู†ู’ ู‚ูŽุจู’ู„ู ููŽุงุณู’ุชูŽุฌูŽุจู’ู†ูŽุง ู„ูŽู‡ูโ€ - meaning โ€“ โ€œ(Remember) Nuh (Noah), when he cried (to Us) aforetime: We listened to his (prayer)โ€. And in the Sunnah we know the story of the Bedouin man who asked the Messenger of Allรขh ๏ฒ call Allรขh to them for rain.


Second one: signs of Prophets which are called Miracles have been perceived by so many people, this proves as well the Existence of their Sender (Allรขh) because these are supernatural phenomena gifted to those Prophets for support and aid. Such as,

- Musa (Moses) who stroke the sea with his rod so it was divided.
- Jesus who raised the dead.
- Muhammad ๏ฒ who pointed to the moon so it was divided into two.


Second, The Belief in His Rububiah (Lordship)


This means that He is the only Lord and He has no partner and no supporter. (Tawhรฎd Ar-Rububiah). Ar-Rub (Lord) is the One Who has the Creation, the Ownership, and the Commandment, Allรขh ๏‰ said, โ€œุฃูŽู„ุง ู„ูŽู‡ู ุงู„ู’ุฎูŽู„ู’ู‚ู ูˆูŽุงู„ุฃู…ู’ุฑูโ€ - meaning โ€“ {Everything is governed by laws under His Command}. And He said, โ€œุชูŽุจูŽุงุฑูŽูƒูŽ ุงู„ู‘ูŽุฐููŠ ุจููŠูŽุฏูู‡ู ุงู„ู’ู…ูู„ู’ูƒู ูˆูŽู‡ููˆูŽ ุนูŽู„ูŽู‰ ูƒูู„ู‘ู ุดูŽูŠู’ุกู ู‚ูŽุฏููŠุฑูŒโ€ โ€“ meaning โ€“ {Blessed is He in Whose Hand is the dominion, and He is Able to do all things.}.


Third: The Belief in His Worship


This means that no one has the right to be worshipped but Allรขh with no other partner. (Tawhรฎd Al-Uluhiah). Al-Ilah (God) is the One who should be worshipped with love and glorification, Allรขh ๏‰ said, โ€œูˆูŽุฅูู„ูŽู‡ููƒูู…ู’ ุฅูู„ูŽู‡ูŒ ูˆูŽุงุญูุฏูŒ ู„ุง ุฅูู„ูŽู‡ูŽ ุฅูู„ุง ู‡ููˆูŽ ุงู„ุฑู‘ูŽุญู’ู…ูŽุงู†ู ุงู„ุฑู‘ูŽุญููŠู…ูโ€ - meaning โ€“ {And your Ilah (God) is One Ilah (God - Allah), La ilaha illa Huwa (there is none who has the right to be worshipped but He), the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.}.


Fourth: The Belief in His Names and Qualities.


This means that we should confirm and belief in what Allรขh has stated in His Book (the Qurโ€™รขn) or mentioned through His Messenger (Muhammad ๏ฒ) without changing their meaning or ignoring their meaning or ignoring them completely or twisting the meaning or likening them (giving resemblance). Allรขh ๏‰ said, โ€œูˆู„ู„ู‡ ุงู„ุฃุณู…ุงุก ุงู„ุญุณู†ู‰โ€ - meaning โ€“ {The most beautiful Names belong to Allรขh: so call on Him by them}, and He said, โ€œู„ูŠุณ ูƒู…ุซู„ู‡ ุดูŠุกโ€ - meaning โ€“ โ€œThere is nothing whatever like unto Him, and He is the One that hears and sees (all things)โ€. (Tawhรฎd Al-Asmaโ€™ Was-Sifat).
