Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds, (2) The Beneficent, the Merciful. (3) Owner of the Day of Judgment, (4) Thee (alone) we worship; Thee (alone) we ask for help. (5) Show us the straight path, (6) The path of those whom Thou hast favoured. Not (the path) of those who earn Thine anger nor of those who go astray. (7)_[QURAN 1:1-7 (The Opening Surah of the QURAN)]
Allah is the Arabic word for God and it combines the many great names and attributes of Allah. Among these attributes, which are also the names of Allah, are: The Most Merciful, The Compassionate, The Strong, The Creator, The First, The Last, The Beneficent, The Just, The Sustainer, The All-Hearer, The All-Seeing, The Magnificent One, The Great Forgiver, The Subtle One, The Gracious, The Bountiful One. These are only a few of Allah's names provided as examples here. We will have a separate section for Allah's names and attributes to discuss them in more details.
Allah's tab started, above, with the first chapter or Surah of the QURAN, which is the Opening chapter that consists of 7 verses only. The Muslims recite this Surah in every unit (Rak'ah) of their prayer. The second thing mentioned above was some explanations of who Allah is, examples of his names and attributes were provided above to mention a few. Below this section, we are presenting verses from the Quran that describe Allah in more details. Note that details about the Quran, which is the holy book of Muslims, are presented and discussed under a separate tab on this website "What is Islam".
Allah! There is no God save Him, the Alive, the Eternal. Neither slumber nor sleep overtaketh Him. Unto Him belongeth whatsoever is in the heavens and whatsoever is in the earth. Who is he that intercedeth with Him save by His leave? He knoweth that which is in front of them and that which is behind them, while they encompass nothing of His knowledge save what He will. His throne includeth the heavens and the earth, and He is never weary of preserving them. He is the Sublime, the Tremendous. [QURAN 2:255]
Allah is the Light of the heavens and the earth. The similitude of His light is as a niche wherein is a lamp. The lamp is in a glass. The glass is as it were a shining star. (This lamp is) kindled from a blessed tree, an olive neither of the East nor of the West, whose oil would almost glow forth (of itself) though no fire touched it. Light upon light. Allah guideth unto His light whom He will. And Allah setteth forth for mankind similitudes, for Allah is Knower of all things. [QURAN 24:35]
Say: He is Allah, the One! (1) Allah, the eternally Besought of all! (2) He begetteth not nor was begotten. (3) And there is none comparable unto Him. (4). [QURAN 112 - Surah Al-Ikhlas: Purity of Faith]
Allah! There is no God save Him, the Alive, the Eternal. (2) He hath revealed unto thee (Muhammad) the Scripture with truth, confirming that which was (revealed) before it, even as He revealed the Torah and the Gospel. [QURAN 2:2-3]
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Praise be to Allah, unto Whom belongeth whatsoever is in the heavens and whatsoever is in the earth. His is the praise in the Hereafter, and He is the Wise, the Aware. [QURAN 34:1]
He knoweth that which goeth down into the earth and that which cometh forth from it, and that descendeth from the heaven and that which ascendeth into it. He is the Merciful, the Forgiving.
[QURAN 34:2]
All that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth glorifieth Allah; unto Him belongeth Sovereignty and unto Him belongeth praise, and He is Able to do all things. [QURAN 64:1]
Praise be to Allah, Who hath sent to His Servant the Book, and hath allowed therein no Crookedness.(But hath made it) straight, to give warning of stern punishment from Him, and to bring unto the believers who do good works the news that theirs will be a fair reward, (2) Wherein they will abide for ever; (3) [QURAN 18:1-3]
To Allah belong all things in heaven and earth: verily Allah is He (that is) free of all wants, worthy of all praise. (26) And if all the trees in the earth were pens, and the sea, with seven more seas to help it, (were ink), the words of Allah could not be exhausted. Lo! Allah is Mighty, Wise. (27) [QURAN 31:26-27]
If We had caused this Quran to descend upon a mountain, thou (O Muhammad) verily hadst seen it humbled, rent asunder by the fear of Allah. Such similitudes coin We for mankind that haply they may reflect. [QURAN 59:21]
He is Allah, than Whom there is no other God, the Knower of the Invisible and the Visible. He is the Beneficent, the Merciful. [QURAN 59:22]
He is Allah, than Whom there is no other God, the Sovereign Lord, the Holy One, Peace, the Keeper of Faith, the Guardian, the Majestic, the Compeller, the Superb. Glorified be Allah from all that they ascribe as partner (unto Him).
[QURAN 59:23]
He is Allah, the Creator, the Shaper out of naught, the Fashioner. His are the most beautiful names. All that is in the heavens and the earth glorifieth Him, and He is the Mighty, the Wise. [QURAN 59:24]
Whereof do they question one another? (1) (It is) of the awful tidings, (2) Concerning which they are in disagreement. (3) Nay, but they will come to know! (4) Nay, again, but they will come to know! (5) Have We not made the earth an expanse, (6) [QURAN 78:1-6]
Verily, I am Allah: There is no god but I: So serve thou Me (only), and establish regular prayer for celebrating My praise.
