(٢٢)IS ALLAH (S.W) ONE OR THREE?We find the same thing in Psalms. “F<strong>or</strong> I know that the LORD <strong>is</strong>great, and that our L<strong>or</strong>d <strong>is</strong> above all gods.” (Psalms 135:5).The divinity of the belly and the others <strong>is</strong> metaph<strong>or</strong>ic and not real.In “Explanation of the Faith’s principles” the auth<strong>or</strong>s wrote, “Mose<strong>sw</strong>as called god by God himself as he was acting on God’s behalf,and not because he was divine. The same goes f<strong>or</strong> the Judgesbecause they judge acc<strong>or</strong>ding to God’s Law. The belly, the statuesand the m<strong>one</strong>y, it was called as such because some people hadtaken it as gods, and the devil was called god because he controlsour w<strong>or</strong>ld”. 1Th<strong>is</strong> <strong>is</strong> the Holy Bible’s language and way of expression; whoeverins<strong>is</strong>ts on taking its w<strong>or</strong>ds literally, <strong>is</strong> wrong. The l<strong>or</strong>dship menti<strong>one</strong>dabove was just metaph<strong>or</strong>ic, and the same goes f<strong>or</strong> Jesus (PBUH).In h<strong>is</strong> book "the Precious Holy Bible seekers’ guide", Dr. SamaanKahloon wrote, “Expressions in the Holy Bible are very metaph<strong>or</strong>icand mysterious especially in the Old Testament”.He also wrote, “Expressions in the New Testament are also verymetaph<strong>or</strong>ic, specially "the w<strong>or</strong>ds of our Savi<strong>or</strong>", and because someof the Chr<strong>is</strong>tian teachers used literal interpretation methods, many ofthe false and c<strong>or</strong>rupted opinions were spread around…” 2In addition, when Jesus (PBUH) heard about these metaph<strong>or</strong>ic gods,he declared that there <strong>is</strong> only One True God who <strong>is</strong> Allah (S.W), hesaid, “And th<strong>is</strong> <strong>is</strong> eternal life, that they know you the onlytrue God, and Jesus Chr<strong>is</strong>t whom you have sent.” (John 17:3)which clearly means that heaven and eternal life will be obtained bybearing witness that Allah (S.W) <strong>is</strong> One, and that Jesus (PBUH) <strong>is</strong>h<strong>is</strong> messenger, and th<strong>is</strong> <strong>is</strong> 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.
