Who is ALLAH? The Sovereign of the Unseen and the Manifest
By Angelkesfarl
Today, we speak of the Divine. Allah—the Name that gathers all Divine Attributes into one singular Essence. Let me introduce you to Him: He is the Ever-Living, the All-Knowing, the Omnipotent. He has no peer, no likeness, and no predecessor. He was not born of a father or a mother; no god existed before Him, and no deities share His throne.
Allah has no physical manifestation. None among us has seen Him to speak of His form. Even the Prophet Muhammad, during his celestial ascension (Miraj), described the experience as an "encompassing Light" beyond distinction. He is the First without a beginning, for He is the Creator of Time itself. Time is merely a measure of motion relative to a physical body—the time of an atom differs from the time of a sun, a galaxy, or the cosmos as a whole. But the Deity is transcendent, above all such measures; He is without beginning and without end. You may contemplate Him, but to comprehend Him is beyond the reach of the finite mind.
When the Creator describes Himself, He does not use the term "sitting" as some traditions suggest. He uses the word Istiwa (Establishment/Sovereignty) over the Throne (Al-Arsh). This "Throne" is a linguistic metaphor for His absolute dominion. Istiwa signifies supreme governance—He is the sole Owner of the manifest Kingdom (Al-Mulk) and the hidden Realms (Al-Malakut).
Any attempt to separate Allah from the realm of the "Occult" or the modern world is like a blind man denying the existence of the moon. He lacks the eyes to see it, and thus remains trapped in his shallow intellectual shell, oblivious to the celestial influence felt by all others.
The History of the Name: The name "Allah" was used by the Monotheists, Christians, and Jews of the Arabian Peninsula long before the advent of Islam. It is the Arabic linguistic pinnacle—the word Ilah (Deity) combined with the definite article Al (The), specifically designating the Divine Essence. In the Torah, it is found in the essence of "I am YHWH, your Elohim." Christians address Him as the Father. Allah, therefore, is the Only True God.
A Question to the Seekers: The True God told Moses, "You shall not see Me, but look at the mountain." If Allah is the Transcendent One who remains unseen in this earthly realm, where are the "demigods" and the "sons of Zeus, Kali, or Vishnu"? Why has none of them dared to manifest their alleged supernatural powers in our present day? Their appearances are always relegated to the distant past.
The One God says: "You shall not see Me, but you shall see My Power manifesting as the Creator of all things." This is a philosophical invitation to seek His traces. He is Al-Hayy al-Qayyum—the Ever-Living, the Sustainer. He never sleeps, never forgets. Every atom and every galaxy is under His Holy Gaze; the hidden and the manifest, the past and the future, are all an "Eternal Present" before Him.
The Mercy and the Justice: He is Al-Rahman (The Compassionate) and Al-Rahim (The Merciful). His Compassion is rooted in Justice: the one who works hard is rewarded; the one who idles goes hungry. Is it not justice that effort yields fruit? His Mercy is specific—He hears every prayer and grants victory to the oppressed, even if you do not witness the moment of triumph.
The Mystery of Elohim: Some failed interpretations suggest that "Elohim" implies a plurality of gods. This is a profound misunderstanding. In the esoteric sense, it aligns with "Allah-umma"—the "M" (Mem) is not a plurality of persons, but a plurality of Attributes. You call upon Him through the totality of His names to be with you in your time of fear.
Can the Divine be forced to do anything? Impossible.
I am not here to defend a specific religion; I am here to speak the Truth I have come to believe. Which is superior: a pantheon of squabbling, warring gods who kill and negate one another, or a Single Deity whom no force can rival? All powers—no matter how "supernatural" they seem to you—are merely limited gifts He bestowed upon His creation.
The Power of the Name: To hate the Divine because He governs and possesses "Fire" to punish the transgressor is futile. Even a mortal dictator can block your access to a website or punish you for theft—will your hatred nullify the law?
When I speak of Allah, I speak of the Name at which the mightiest demons tremble. If you say, "I seek refuge in Allah from the Accursed Devil," the most formidable dark forces shatter and flee. This is not a modern invention; "Deity" (Ilah) is the oldest word in human history. Before the first Arabic word was ever uttered, He Was.
I know many here hold different faiths or none at all. I harbor no enmity toward anyone based on their creed or origin. But just as you possess the freedom to express your views on the Divine, I—Angelkesfarl—exercise my freedom to define the "Allah" I know.
