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

(٢٢)IS ALLAH (S.W) ONE OR THREE?We find the same thing in Psalms. “For I know that the LORD isgreat, and that our Lord is above all gods.” (Psalms 135:5).The divinity of the belly and the others is metaphoric and not real.In “Explanation of the Faith’s principles” the authors wrote, “Moseswas called god by God himself as he was acting on God’s behalf,and not because he was divine. The same goes for the Judgesbecause they judge according to God’s Law. The belly, the statuesand the money, it was called as such because some people hadtaken it as gods, and the devil was called god because he controlsour world”. 1This is the Holy Bible’s language and way of expression; whoeverinsists on taking its words literally, is wrong. The lordship mentionedabove was just metaphoric, and the same goes for Jesus (PBUH).In his book "the Precious Holy Bible seekers’ guide", Dr. SamaanKahloon wrote, “Expressions in the Holy Bible are very metaphoricand mysterious especially in the Old Testament”.He also wrote, “Expressions in the New Testament are also verymetaphoric, specially "the words of our Savior", and because someof the Christian teachers used literal interpretation methods, many ofthe false and corrupted opinions were spread around…” 2In addition, when Jesus (PBUH) heard about these metaphoric gods,he declared that there is only One True God who is Allah (S.W), hesaid, “And this is eternal life, that they know you the onlytrue God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.” (John 17:3)which clearly means that heaven and eternal life will be obtained bybearing witness that Allah (S.W) is One, and that Jesus (PBUH) ishis messenger, and this is what all Muslims believe.1 Explanation of the Essence of Faith, Dr. Priest Andrew Watson, and Dr. Priest IbrahimSaeed, pp 442 The Truth Revealed, Rahamtu Allah Al-Hindi Vol.3 pp 702.
