Does God Look Human?

Just found an interesting article.

In the lives of devout Muslims, a day never passes by without them using the Arabic phrase, Insha-Allah (God So Willing), at the end of the conversation when they refer to future events. Without an understanding of the meaning of this Arabic phrase, God’s relationship with His creatures, the concept of creation, and the role of free will cannot bring into human comprehension. It is also not possible to counter materialists with a rational internally consistent argument against their exclusion of God in the evolution of life and the universe. Materialist scientists argue that biological evolution is an "inherently mindless purposeless process.[1] They preach that impersonal laws rule the universe and atoms are at work in the operation of life.

Check IslamiCity - The Global Muslim eCommunity for the whole article.

i think this article makes it too black vs white. I get the feeling as if the author is generalizing all scientists as being materialists who outright reject the notion of something being beyond atoms etc. I’ve come across many ppl who do believe science and ‘non’-materialism can be combined

i'd normally just have always looked at Allah swt as some force beyond that noone, human atleast, can comprehend. sometimes i think that God is merely a nonexistent figure made up by us humans in stories, etc; but even when u resort to science;
i mean; something had to set off the big bang. That tiny point of manner that exploded; something put pressure into it to make it explode.

Thats one of the greatest arguments I had during one of my lectures.Its quite fascinating.

kaka--- Ofcourse we will.However, we humans -by nature- are curious beings.

Kane-- But I think we can get an idea about Allah.Our faith if strong enough - can bring us closer to him.

Nes--- Iv got a very interesting book about scientists vs religion.I might post some stuff from that in this forum.If you guys are interested that is.

allah subhana'watallah doesn't look like human they are made of noor {divine light} and hazrat mousa kaleem allah on their continuous israar saw a atom of that light on mountain tour but fell unconscious afterwards.
