Knowledge of Allah:Dr.M.Shahid Siddiqi Retired tax consultant
If you are asked:who is your Lord?
Then say, My Lord is Allah: He has nourished me
As well as other creatures with His blessings.
He is my deity, and I know of no other deity but
Him.
Evidence from the Quran:
(Praise be to Allah’ Lord of all creation) 1:1
Everything other than Allah is His Creation:
and I am part of that creation.
If you are asked: How have you arrived at this knowledge of your Lord?
Then say through His signs and His creatures.
(among His signs and creatures are the night and the day, the sun and the moon; Adore not the and the moon, but adore Allah who had created them, if it is indeed Him you worship) 41:37
It is only the Lord who is to be worshipped.
Evidence from the Quran:
“O mankind ! Worship your Lord(Allah), who has
created you and those before you, so that you
fear Him: It is He Who has made the earth your
convenient habitation and the heavens a well
built structure, and causes water, to fall down from the sky; thereby producing fruit for your
sustenance: therefore, do not set up peers for
Allah when you have this knowledge.”(2,21,2)
It means:
It is only the creator of all these things who is
worthy to be worshipped.
