The
brother asked a very good question. Peace be on you too.
Brother, wala Kum, assalam, ah, peace, mercy and blessing of
Allah. Subhana wa taala, beyond you, brother. Brother asked a very
good question that even the Quran, it is mentioned that God exists
everywhere. The Muslims believe God exists everywhere. Even the
Hindus believe God exists everywhere. So what is our harm in
worshiping idol. God exists in the idol god exists in human beings
also. So what's the harm in worshiping idol? Brother, nowhere
in the Quran is it mentioned that God exists everywhere?
Nowhere in the Quran is it mentioned god exists everywhere? I
am aware there is a misconception amongst many Muslims who assume
god exists everywhere, nowhere. Does the Quran say they exist
everywhere. What the Quran says
Allah's power exists everywhere.
Allah has the power the verse of the Quran, wherever you turn your
face, you will see the verge of Allah, Subhanahu wa the face means
the power of Allah. Subhana wa taala. Allah is capable of
controlling anything and everything,
but the statement he exists everywhere is not mentioned
anywhere in the Quran, neither in any Hadith. I am aware that there
are certain Muslims lot of misconception. They believe that
this is no way mentioned. But his power exists. Power exists
everywhere. Now regarding your question, Where does God exist,
and why can't we worship an idol? Where does God exist? The Quran
says,
Allah is on the ash. The hadith
where a lady approached and the Prophet asked her, where is God?
She said, point on top. God said, she has Iman. She has faith. So
God exists on the ash, on the throne. The Throne exists on the
water. He is up in the heavens, so, but najal, he is not in the
human being. Yes, he can control Allah says He is closer to you
than your jaguar vein. That means he is aware of everything. His
power is there. That doesn't mean God Himself has come into the
Jaguar vein. That doesn't mean that. It means that Allah has
power. He is close to you. That means he loves you. He knows, he
knows everything. He has power over everything. Not even a leaf
can fall without the permission of Allah subhanahu wa coming to your
question, why can't we worship idols? If you read the Quran,
Quran says, In surah the chapter five, verse number 90, which I
quoted, idol worship is prohibited. Same thing. If you
read the Bhagavad Gita. Bhagavad Gita says, in chapter number
seven, verse number 20, all those whose intelligence number seven,
verse number 20, all those whose intelligence has been stolen by
material desires, they worship Demi gods,
materialistic people. They do widely worship. If you read the
chandhoya Upanishad, chapter number six, section number two,
verse number one, it says ekkam evidityam. It's a Sanskrit
quotation which means God is only one without a second. It's
mentioned in the svetasida Upanishad, chapter number six,
verse number nine, nachase Kasich, Janita nachadipa, of him, there
are no Lords.
He has got no parents. Almighty God has got no father, he has got
no mother. Almighty God has got no superior. He has got no master.
It's mentioned in the Shweta sutta Upanishad, chapter number four,
verse number 19.
Natha sipati Masti of him, there is no likeness. It further
repeated in Yajurveda, chapter number 32 verse number three.
Natasipati Masti of him. There are no images Almighty God. I've got
no images. So the moment you make an image of Almighty God, you are
going against the Veda. You are going against Bhagavad Gita,
Bhagavad Gita, Vedas, all the scriptures, they speak against
idol worship. For the details, you can come to my talk on not
tomorrow, next Sunday, 18th of January, on similarities between
Hinduism Islam, and I'll deal with this topic in detail. So even idol
of worship is prohibited in Hinduism. Why do they do the Hindu
scholars have a certain logic, which you can reply to that also
you come for my talk, similarities between Hindus and Islam and
Inshallah, I will get more knowledge on this aspect. You
