I start my recitation with the Name of Allah (the One Who deserves to be worshipped), Who is ar-RaHman (the One Who is very merciful to Muslims and non-Muslims in this life), and Who is ar-RaHeem (the One Who is very merciful to Muslims only in the Hereafter).

Here is how the Arabic writing for that Surah looks like:

سورة الإخلاص

قُلْ هُوَ اللهُ أَحَدٌ {1}

اللهُ الصَّمَدُ {2}

لَمْ يَلِدْ وَلَمْ يُولَدْ {3}

وَلَمْ يَكُن لَّهُ كُفُوًا أَحَدٌ {4}

The Meaning of Suratul-'Ikhlas

1. [0 MuHammad,] say that Allah is One without a partner to Him in the Self or attributes, and the One Who is indivisible (because He is not a body.)


2. All creations need Allah and He does not need any of, them. He is the One to Whom all resort in all types of adversities. He does not benefit from His creations and does not ward any harm off Himself by them.



3. Nothing was born out of Him; so no one inherits Him. He was not born; so no one shares property with Him. He is not the origin of anything and He did not originate from anything.



4. He has no equal in any way.

[Alsunna Teacher]

And from the last verse in that surah know that the belief of the Muslims is that Allah: has no partner, is the creator of everything, does not need any of his creations, and absolutely nothing resembles Allah.

Allah is great, the six directions do not pertain Allah, He is not sitting on the throne, He does not reside in the heavens or in places as jews say, whatever you imagine in your mind Allah is different from it. Allah exists without a place is the belief of Muslims.


ALLAH IS NOT ON A THRONE NOR IS HE IN THE SKY HE IS NOT EVERY WHERE ALLAH EXISTS WITH OUT A PLACE

Al-Bayhaqiyy and Ibnul-Jarud narrated with sahih chain that the Prophet, sallallahu ^alayhi wa sallam, said "Kanallahu wa lam yakun shay'un ghayruh," which means "Allah existed eternally and nothing other than Allah existed with Him."

The scholars of Islam said that it is obligatory upon every mukallaf to know 13 Attributes of Allah. Allah is attributed with: Existence, Oneness, Eternity, Everlastingness, Non-neediness of others, Power, Will, Knowledge, Hearing, Sight, Life, Speech, and Non-resemblance to the creation.
