The God Of Islam

It is difficult for man to make God intelligible without giving Him a form. And yet a step higher in God-realization is to make Him intelligible beyond the limit of form. Therefore, in Islam God was made intelligible by His attributes. He was conceived of as the Creator, as Father, as Mother, as Sustainer, as Judge, as Forgiver, as the source and the Goal of this whole manifestation, as the One who is always with His creatures, within them, and outside them, who notices all their feelings, thoughts, and actions, who draws the line of man's fate, before whom man must appear to give his account ? this is the God of Islam.
Islam believed in only one God, who has many attributes but is yet beyond any attributes; invisible and beyond the comprehension of man, almighty, incomparable of one save He having any power beside Him, the Knower of all things and pure from all impurities, free from all things and yet never far from them, all abiding in Him and He living in all. The whole essential teaching of Islam, which is called Kalamat, tends to explain clearly the oneness of God. And yet the attributes are suggested, not in order to explain God, but with a view to making God intelligible to the human mind.
These attributes form what is called Sifat, the external part of God, which is intelligible to man. But that part of the divine Being which is hidden under attributes and which cannot be intelligible to the human mind is called Zat, which means real Being. The whole tendency of Islam has been to disentangle man's heart from such thoughts as limit and divide God, and to clear man's heart from duality which is the nature of this illusory world, bringing him to that at-one-ment with God which has been the real aim and intention of every religion.

I have posted this so that people can read my point about this, so that they can go deeper in its content (if they want). For me it doesn't make diffrence where I have to post it specifically. I place it so that people can read it clearly.
If I understand you right, if there were a thread about ''Tashnagtsuchun'' a tashnag should post his/her view about something in this specific thread?
Don't get me wrong, its only a example...

Indeed very easy to say
So we have to make threads with the political parties and everyone who belongs to that specific political party should only post him/her topic(s) or posts in there.
Brilliant idea Armen!

If I understand correctly Armen is saying that if there is a thread on Islam it is better to post in that thread. Not that if you are an Armenist you should post in an Armenist thread only. By the was, the word "islam" literally means surrender, and Islam is a religion of surrender to God. "Salam" means peace.

Salam to all ( peace to all )
Muslims dont concieve God as Father and/or Mother . Muslims believe that God has no patners
he is not a Father/mother, Son/daughter. God (Allah) is the Creator of eveything, he is the Most high and so forth...

I think in Islam, farting must stricly be performed in the direction pointing AWAY from Mecca. Though group farting is encouraged and practiced several times a day. Though I could be wrong.

My apologies I thought it was Hijabhead.
Yeh!!! the fart thing, God already helped me through you otherwise I would have thought that they really fart. I'm a very naive person and I usually believe in what people say in particularly Sip and Edward but I don't believe Mosjan he steals avatars so be careful hide your avatar or maybe put a hijab over it that way he might overlook it.
P.S. Be careful with Extra as well she helps him.
