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

(٢١)IS ALLAH (S.W) ONE OR THREE?The Torah also mentions the word “God” and it refers to Judges,because they Judge according to Allah’s (S.W) Law. “But if theservant shall plainly say… then his master shall bring himto God, and shall bring him to the door.”(Ex.21:5-6)In the next chapter of the same book, we read, “If the thief is notfound, the owner of the house shall come near to God toshow whether or not he has put his hand to his neighbor'sproperty… The one whom God condemns shall pay doubleto his neighbor.” (Ex.22: 8-9)In the Book of Deuteronomy, we read, “then both parties to thedispute shall appear before the LORD, before the priests”(Duet. 19:17)In the Book of Psalms, “God stands in the congregation ofGod; He judges among the gods. How long will you judgeunjustly, and respect the persons of the wicked?”(Psalms82:1) It is clear that this passage talks about the Judges and thenoble Israelites.The use of this word has spread even further to call all the Israelites,as mentioned in Psalms. “I said, you are gods, and all of yousons of the Most High. Nevertheless you shall die like men.”(Psalms 82:6) This passage is what Jesus (PBUH) quoted while hewas speaking to the Jews. “Jesus answered them, Is it notwritten in your law, I said, you are gods? If he called themgods, to whom the word of God came, and the scripturecannot be broken; Say you of him, whom the Father hassanctified, and sent to the world, you blasphemes; becauseI said, I am the Son of God?” (John 10:34)The Holy Books continue in giving these names even to devils andnations’ false gods. Not only that Paul called the devil god, but alsothe belly. He said about the devil: “In whom the god of thisworld had blinded the minds of them which believe not, lestthe light of the glorious gospel of Christ.” (Cor.2 4:4)He said the following about people who follow their desires: “whoseGod is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame.” (Phi.3:19)
