is allah (sw) one or three? - Islam Center

(٩٩)IS ALLAH (S.W) ONE OR THREE?The Holy Spirit was with the people of Israel when they left Egypt.“Then he remembered the days of old, of Moses and hispeople. Where is he who brought them up out of the seawith the shepherds of his flock? Where is he who put in themidst of them his Holy Spirit, Who divided the watersbefore them to make for himself an everlasting name.”(Isaiah 63/11), but he was an angel not a divine person. "Behold, Isend an angel before you to guard you on the way and tobring you to the place that I have prepared.” (Exodus 23/20)The Holy Spirit is the angel that was with them.Allah’s (S.W) Spirit is not a name for Gabriel, but it is the name formany other angels as well. “And between the throne and thefour living creatures and among the elders I saw a Lambstanding, as though it had been slain, with seven horns andwith seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God sent outinto all the earth.” (Revelation 5/6).

If the Holy Spirit were an everlasting Godand equal to the Father in every thing, he would make people speakhis own words.What disproves the divinity of the Holy Spirit is his ignorance – justlike others - of the time of the Day of Judgment, as no one knows itexcept the Father. "But concerning that day or that hour, noone knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, butonly the Father.” (Mark 13/32)Another fact disproving the Holy Spirit’s divinity is that the passagesspeak of him as a gift from Allah (S.W) to men, as Jesus said, “Ifyou then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your
