Is THEM Guilty of Shirk? - Dr. Wesley Muhammad

Allah, only to turn around and say, well no, he saw and touched him only in a vision?
Dr. Wesley states that the vision was an accurate portrait of Allah, but how would he know this if it was
only a vision? He has nothing to compare the vision with in the real world, because he didn't see the
physical Allah in the real world. For example, if I asked you to see my cousin who lives in France in a
vision, you could have a vision of what you think is him, but you wouldn't know it, because you never saw
my cousin. However, if you had seen him and then had a vision of him, you could tell me with conviction
that you saw him in a vision, because you know what he looks like.
So, if Dr. Wesley accepts the HEM's position that the prophet never saw G-d, but only saw a vision of Gd,
then perhaps he should have spent 2 hours trying to prove that the reports of the prophet's visions were
true, not that the prophet actually saw and taught that Allah is a physical man.
In this effort to not contradict the HEM, I believe Dr. Wesley contradicts a large part of his own case;
namely, that prophet Muhammad's words prove that he saw Allah as a man.
CONCLUDING ARGUMENT
Dr. Wesley Muhammad concludes his case by saying to the Muslim world at large, which concept of
Allah will you choose? The belief in Allah as eternal, who cannot be comprehended with the eye, who has
no form or shape like anything in the material world or the belief in Allah as a man, who has a shape, is
limited, is like the material world, and can be seen with the physical eye and heard with the physical ear?
He concludes that those who don't believe in Allah as a man are the ones guilty of setting up partners with
Allah (shirk) by making an invisible G-d, the G-d instead of the real Allah, who is a man.
CONCLUDING RESPONSE
Obviously, I disagree with Dr. Wesley Muhammad's viewpoint. Therefore, I conclude with a comment
from my leader Imam W. Deen Mohammed and his leader the Holy Qur'an.
Imam Mohammed has said, "You can't put Allah on a slide so that you can examine Him...that is
foolishness. You can't even see everything in the creation, how are you going to see Allah, who is bigger
than the creation?" The Imam said, "You claim to comprehend Allah and you haven't even analyzed
yourself; you can't even comprehend everything about yourself."
Each one of us has our own life and it is difficult to master. We don't even understand ourselves and the
world we live in. Yet, we are going to define Allah and bring Him down to our level where we can see
Him.
Let me end with Allah's words:
40:57 "Assuredly the creation of the heavens and the earth is a greater (matter) than the creation of men:
Yet most men understand not."
9:31 "They take their priests and their anchorites to be their lords in derogation of Allah, and (they take as
their Lord) Christ the son of Mary; yet they were commanded to worship but One Allah. there is no god
but He. Praise and glory to Him: (Far is He) from having the partners they associate (with Him)."
