[6] مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ...

So he -asws wrote: ‘Glorious is the One -azwj , there being nothing like Him -azwj , neither a body nor an image’. وَ رَوَاهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ لَمْ يُسَمِّ الرَّجُلَ . And it is reported by Muhammad Bin Abdu Abdullah, except that he did not name the man’. [7] Further Ahadith on not discussing the ‘Self’ of Allah -azwj are given in Appendix II.

Introduction: Allah -azwj can only be exemplifies as His Self -azwj and one cannot say that Allah -azwj comes or goes as if Allah -azwj is in the Skies or on earth or at a specific place but Allah -azwj Encompasses everything without being within or part of it.

It will be like worshiping an idol, if one creates an image of Allah -azwj , as some of the Muslim sects do. Similarly, establishing images of Masomeen -asws will also be our own creation and certainly not them -asws , as them being ‘Al-Noor’ of Allah -azwj , encompassing the universe.
