Let us discuss the concept of God in Islam.
The best reply that any Muslim can give you regarding the concept of
God in Islam is go to Surah class, chapter 112 was the one to fall
call who Allahu Ahad, says Allah, the One and Only Allahu Samad
Allah, the absolute, the eternal lamb Yellin while I'm Hewlett he
began to not know obviously begotten. Well, me Aquila Okafor.
And there is nothing like unto Him.
This to the class is the touchstone of theology.
To in Greek means, God alloggi mean study does theology means
study of God.
And if anyone says that so and so candidate is God, and if that
candidate fits in this full line definition, we Muslims, we have
got no objection in accepting that candidate as called.
And same thing is mentioned the Hindu scriptures. So the first
test is called Paula who
says Allah, the One and Only
same thing is mentioned the Hindu scriptures, it is mentioned it
Chandogya Upanishad chapter six, section number two was the mu one,
it can if the term God is only one without second.
The second is Allahu Samad Allah, the absolute, the eternal. Same
thing is mentioned in Bhagavad Gita, chapter number 10 was number
three, that they believe me as unborn beginningless, the Supreme
Lord of all worlds. The third is lamb Yellin Well, Abdullah, He
begets not nervously begotten. Same thing is mentioned. It's a
tough battle Punisher. Chapter number six was to McKnight not
just a passage, Jonathan a charity pack, which means of that, Lord,
he has got no superior. He has got no lords, he has got no parents.
He has got no father, he has got no mother.
And the last is wollemi, Aquila, who fought hard and there is
nothing like unto him. Same thing is mentioned
he does start a petition chapter before was to build it and you
read chapter 22 Verse two three, na tatoeba Asti of that God, there
is a likeness there is the image.
So if anyone says that soy soy candidate is all by to God, and if
that candidate fits this full light definition of pseudo class,
we Muslims, we have got no objection in accepting that
candidate has called
many people say that Bhagwan Rajneesh is Almighty God. Let's
put this Bhagwad Russische to the test of pseudo class.
The first is called who Allahu Ahad? says Allah The One Only
was Pugwash alleged one and only there are several people who have
claimed divinity, especially for my country, India that 1000s and
1000s of people who have claimed divinity so it's not one and only.
The second is allow summon Allah the absolute the eternal was
Bhagwad Rajneesh, absolute and eternal. We know from his
biography that he was suffering from asthma from chronic backache
from diabetes mellitus. Imagine Almighty God suffering from asthma
from chronic backache from diabetes mellitus.
The third is Lam Yellin. Well, I'm youlet he began not not as
begotten.
We know Bhagwan Rajesh. He was born in the state of Madhya
Pradesh. He had a mother and he had a father. And later on in
1981, he goes to USA and in the city of Oregon, he starts his
village college runs this program. It takes 1000s of Americans for
ride. Later on the American government, they imprison Bhagwad
Rishikesh, and Bhagwan Russische was saying that the American
government they were slow poisoning him. Imagine Almighty
God being slow poison.
Later on the American government, they kick Bhagwan Rajesh out of
America.
And he comes back to the state of Maharashtra, and in the city of
Pune, he starts his community.
And if you go to Pune,
on his tomb, or the Samadhi, it is mentioned also never born, never
died, but visited the Earth from the 11th of December 1931 to the
19th of January 1990. They forgot to mention on the tomb, that he
was not granted visas 21 Different countries of the world. Imagine
Almighty God requiring visas to travel to different countries of
the world.
And the Archbishop of Greece said that if you do not throw rice
niche out of the country, we shall burn his house as well as the
house of disciples.
And the lastest is so strange
Should that does not benefit anyone but the to Almighty God.
The moment you can compare God to anything in this world, he is not
called while me I couldn't have fun and there is nothing like unto
Him.
We know Bhagwan Rajesh. He had two eyes. Two years. He had a white
beard and he wore a white robe. The moment you can compare God to
anything in this world, He is not God while I'm Jaco comfort, and
there's nothing like unto Him.
For example, some people say that Almighty God, he is 1000 times
stronger than Arnold Schwarzenegger.
You might have heard the person Alan sauce sugar, the person who
won the title, Mr. Universe, that swag is bad in the world. The swag
is part of the universe. The moment you can compare it to
anything in this world. He is not called while a miracle Okafor. And
there's nothing like up to him, whether it be Arnold
Schwarzenegger, or whether it be Qigong or whether it be data
saying the moment you can compare God to anything in this world. He
is not called Wallaby or colo Kufa and there's nothing like unto Him.
So this will be his last chapter number 112 was the waterfall is a
touchstone of theology. So if anyone says that so and so
candidate is God, and if that candidate fits this full line
definition, we Muslims, we have got no objection and accepting
that candidate has gone
