HOW DOES THE QURAN
REVEAL GOD?
Sura 15:29 And when I have proportioned him [Adam] and breathed into him of My soul [spirit], then fall down to him in prostration.
Sura 32:9 Then He proportioned him and breathed into him from His soul [spirit] and made for you hearing and vision and hearts; little are you grateful.
Sura 12:87 O my sons, go and find out about Joseph and his brother and despair not of relief from Allah [Exact translation: spirit of Allah]. Indeed, no one despairs of relief from Allah [Exact translation: spirit of Allah] except the disbelieving people.
“Allah” has been used here, although the original text says “Spirit of Allah”. Islamic faith says that the “Spirit of Allah” is Gabriel. They had to change it here because “Spirit of Allah” exposes Gabriel as another god.
Does God have a Spirit and is His Spirit the angel Gabriel?
God breathed into Adam from His spirit, which means that the spirit of God is not the angel Gabriel, otherwise Gabriel would have contributed in the creation of Adam. God is the only Creator in the Bible.
Genesis 2:7 says, “And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.” God breathed the breath of life from Himself - not of His Spirit nor His Soul. Also, the Quran says that Jacob instructed his sons to trust the spirit of God. So, if the spirit of God were the angel Gabriel, we would be putting our trust in him, but this is impossible because Gabriel is a created being.
Sura 20:5 The Most Merciful [who is] above the Throne established.
Sura 69:17 And the angels are at its edges. And there will bear the Throne of your Lord above them, that Day, eight [angels].
Accordingly, the throne of God is born by eight angels. Because angels are limited, the throne is limited and therefore God on His throne is limited. How can this be?
Sura 68:42 The Day the shin will be uncovered, and they are invited to prostration, but the disbelievers will not be able
According to Ibn Katheer, at the day of judgment the Lord God will uncover his shin (lower part of his leg) and the believer will be able to worship him but the unbeliever will not. We understand from this, that the Lord at the last day will be in human form.
Prophet Mohammad himself saw God.
He said “I have seen my God in a section of paradise in the form of a young man crowned with beaming blinding lights” (Kanz El Omal, part 1, page 228, Hadith 1154 new edition). In the history of the city of Damascus according to Ebn Assaker part 72, page 396 – the Prophet Mohammad said “I have seen my God at Moonai at Al Naphar, on a camel, dressed in a woollen garment in front of the people.” In Omdat Al Karee, part 13, page 116 – God created Adam in His own image.
Conclusion: So God has a Spirit, a throne, a shin and appears in human form.
