A Guy Commented My Blog Post With...

A guy commented my blog post, "Muhammad U. Abdullah Allah is the Creator of Heaven and everything else. Allah is not inside of Heaven. Allah exists without being in a location." ~ Ali Gill

My reply:

Bismi Allahi Al Rahmani Al Raheemi

ASA WR WB to believing Muslim friends:

Al Muqtadiru Allah is translated the Prevailer; the Determiner; the Dominant but it also is in my notes as the Omniscient (Knowing everything). Al Raqibu Allah alludes to this fact in that Allah is the All-Watching, and Allah is Knowing everything because He is Omnipresent or Ubiquitous meaning He is in many places at one time. But the Quranul Kareem says in the Ayatul Kursi, "His Throne doth extend over the Heavens and the Earth and He feels no fatigue in guarding and preserving them." ~ Ayatul Kursi. But this was to say that Allah is Ubiquitous. That explains why a tree can be growing and bearing fruit in China and Brazil simultaneously...2 opposite ends of the planet.

Allah's Presence is not limited only to "Space" but also includes "Time" for Allah is Al Awwal; Al Huwa; and Al Akhir [Allah is the First, Alpha (He is currently in the Past); He is the Present (He is currently in the Present); and He is the Last, the Omega (He is currently in the Future). So to your point I would have to agree with your inform that Allah is not only "The Lord in Heavens" Allahu Rabbul Samawati Wal Ardi. Allah is Lord of the Heavens and the Earth. But to say that Allah is "In Heaven" is not to say that Allah is not "In Earth" or anywhere else it is simply to reference a prayer used in the the Injeel...the "Our Lord Who Art in Heaven..." as a point of reference in my research on this topic. An Ayat of Quran reads, "Allahu Muhitul Bil Nas" Allah surrounds mankind. To say this is not to say that Allah is not "In Heaven".

But, just because Allah (swt) is Omniscient and Omnipresent does it mean anyone should travel to Mars? Because God is everywhere? My thoughts were made evolved to the evidence in this graphic and the fact that Mars was not made inhabitable for humans by Him and that He (swt) instructed us in this graphic to seek of the fruits and provisions of the Earth in a lawful manner. Thus, it is possible to go somewhere and not be under the protecting Covenant of Allah (swt). We just cannot go anywhere in space, time, thought, action, etc. and think all of it is still under the Protecting Covenant of Allah (swt). It is not for us humans to set conditions for Allah (swt). Allah does what He wants when He wants. No vision can grasp Allah, but His grasp is over all vision. Also in reference to above, the Atrribute of Al Shahidu Allah (Allah is the Witness), along with Al Basiru and Al Samiyu these also support His Ubiquity or Omnipresence.

This was the blog post that he commented on. He may have missed the point of me using the Injeel and Kitab to make a statement of Tauhid as Dawah to non-Muslims. https://workandtheotherwork.wordpress.com/2019/11/27/invoking-god-in-heaven-for-blessings-upon-the-messiah-and-mary/ 

When I was an active Sufi in Chicago my Sheikh taught me to pray as if you see Allah. And though you see Him not, know that He sees you. I added to this post and left a reference comment above this comment.

Well here he goes again with this comment on this same topic, "Ali Gill -

"Allah is the Creator. Allah existed before the creations--Allah existed before the existence of directions and space. After Allah originated the creations, Allah did not transform from what He was into something else and start to occupy space or direction.

Muslims do NOT say that Allah is everywhere. Allah existed before the wheres. Allah KNOWS about everything everywhere, and Allah CONTROLS everything everywhere, but Allah exists without being in a place." ~ Ali Gill
