Zakir Naik – Allahs Unique Names and Attributes

I've got 5 categories.

Number 1,

the description of Allah.

You can only give the way he or

his prophet has described him. You cannot give

your own description of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.

Number 2,

you cannot give names to Allah except what

Allah and his prophet have given him.

You cannot say Allah is Al Khadib. The

Quran says Allah gets angry, but you cannot

say the angry one because the prophet and

Allah never gave that name to him.

You cannot give the attributes

of the creation

of Allah to Allah.

You cannot say he repented like the Bible

says, God repented.

That's the quality of his creation.

Allah cannot repent.

You cannot give the qualities of Allah

to his creation.

You cannot say I know a person who

is absolutely eternal. No beginning, no end. That

is the quality of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.

And you cannot give the name of Allah

to any of his creation. You cannot call

anyone a Rahim.

If you have to call, you have to

add Abdi before it. Abdul Rahim,

Abdullah.

In brief, this is Toid al Mustafa.

And Toid al Ibada means that besides

believing in Allah, you only worship him and

no one is.

If you believe in the first two categories

of tawhid,

at the same time you worship somebody else,

you're breaking the third rule of.
