The Meaning tafsir of surat al-’Ikhlāṣ

Al-Hāfiḍh Ibnou Ḥajar said in his book Fatḥou l-Bārī: Al-Bayhaqiyy reported in al-’Asmā’ wa ṣ-ṣifāt with a ḥaçan transmission chain according to Ibnu ʿAbbās that the disbelievers came to the prophet and he Say, tell us your Lord, whom you worship. Allāh revealed qul houwa lLāhou Aḥad until the end of the sūrat. The prophet said, "These are the attributes of my Lordʿ zza wa jall."

Allah God has no Beginning

Allah existed without beginning, that is, before creating creation. There was nothing with Allah: no place, no space, no sky, no Earth, no light and no darkness. According to the rules of religion and the judgments of the sound mind, Allah, the Exalted, does not change. Development is a sign of need for others, and whoever needs it is not God.

God does not resemble the Creation

Allâh exists without a place. He created the universe and willed for the existence of time. He is not bound by time or designated with place. The development is a sign of needing others, and the one who needs others is not God. There is absolutely nothing like Allâh whatsoever, and He has the attributes of Hearing and Seeing.

The Mental Proof that Allah (God) Exists

This universe is created, it is born, it needs who created it and who makes it change. This world with all the creations it contains must have a creator who is alive, attributed to the will, knowledge and power ; and it is Allah taʿālâ. Allah is the creator of all things existing. The healthy mind does not accept the existence of an action without someone executing it.

Allah God doesn’t Change

Allah existed before creating creation. There was and there was no place, creation or thing. He is the creator of everything. Development is a sign of need for others, and whoever needs it is not God. Allah, the Exalted, does not change.

All Prophets are Muslims

It is obligatory to believe in all the Prophets of God from Adam, the first, to Muḥammad, the last. The religion of all the Prophets is Islam, the only religion revealed and approved by God.

Allah Exists Without a Place. God does not resemble His Creation

Allâh created the universe, He exists before the space and the time. God exists without place and does not depend on time. We do not say "where" or "when" or "how" about Allâh.

The Types of Blasphemy and Blasphemers (Kufr)
