1- Allah is one and has no partners at all.

2- Nothing in the whole universe is similar to Him.

3- Nothing can surpass or outreach Him.

4- No one is worthy to be worshipped except Him.

5- He is the First, with no beginning and Eternal with no end.

6- He will never die nor perish.

7- Nothing happens in this universe except with His will.

8- No conjecture or thinking can perceive His real essence.

9- He does not resemble any of His creatures.

10- He is alive; death will not overtake Him. He is the protector; in no need of sleep at all.

11- He is the Creator of the whole universe but He is no need of it. He feeds all without difficulty.

12- He makes all taste death with no fear. He will resurrect them all without any difficulty.

13- Since eternity He has been there with all His attributes. He has always had these attributes and will always have these attributes. They did not increase after He brought His creatures into existence because they have always been there.

14- He was not the Creator (Khaliq) after He had created His creatures and neither was He the Designer (Al-Ban) after He had designed the universe.

15- He was The Nourisher (Rabb) before there was anyone to nourish and The Creator (Khaliq) before He had created anyone.

16- Although He is entitled to be called The Ressurector after giving life to the dead, He deserves this title even before the resurrection. Similarly, He deserves to be called The Creator even before He gave life to anyone.

17- He has power over everyone; everyone is in complete need of Him. He can do whatever he likes easily and is no need of anything.

18- The Qur'an says: "There is nothing like unto Him. And He is the All-Hearer, All-Seer." (Surah Ash-Shura, 42:11)

19- A human being can listen and see as well but his listening faculties and sight are limited. Allah Almighty listens to every sound and sees everything, even if it is a tiny insect in the depth of the ocean or hidden inside a stone. This is how Allah Almighty differs from all of His creatures as far as those attributes are concerned which seem to be common between Him and His creatures.

20- Allah Almighty created all consciously. He estimated for each of His creatures what it needed (Known as Taqdir or pre-destination.

21- He planned the end of every creature.

22- Nothing was hidden from Him even before He brought His creatures into existence. He knew beforehand whatever His creatures would do in their lives.

23- Allah Almighty commands His people to obey Him and forbids them from disobeying.

24- Everything in this universe is bound to His will. What He wills occurs; what He does not will, could never happen.

25- Allah Almighty guides whom He likes. He protects everyone out of His kindness. On the firm ground of justice and equity He disgrace or withholds His guidance or places in trials whoever He likes.

26- All people are under His rule in this world; their lives are governed by His generosity and kindness at one end and His justice at the other.

27- He is above all partners and equals.

28- No one can change His pre — ordained decisions and neither can his orders be delayed. No one can overshadow His decisions.

29- We have complete faith in Him. We believe that everything happens due to Him.
