Muslims refer to their God as Allah. Who is Allah? Is Allah male or female? Was He made of gold or silver? Does He eat or drink? Perhaps a good start is to see how God introduces Himself.
When understanding the Islamic Faith; the Quran and Sunnah are the prime sources for information. It is critical however for the one seeking knowledge to have the proper tools to reach a correct understanding.
Many have wondered if God is truly merciful and loving, how can he allow us to suffer through tragedies such as earthquakes, hurricanes, illness, poverty and criminal acts.
