In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Say: He is Allah the One
Allah the Absolute
He begetteth not nor was He begotten
And there is none like unto Him.
~Qur'an 112
Exerpt: The Islamic Belief and subsequently the Islamic way of life are built on an intellectual basis. Therefore, Islam is neither a religion nor set of values and rituals that arise from Blind Faith. Rather Islam is an intellectual belief from which emanates a comprehensive socio-political and economical system. To understand the unique system that Islam offers necessitates the explanation of the Islamic belief i.e. the proof in God, Allah (SWT) and the word of God, the Qur'an.

The Intellectual Basis of Islam
From the e-discover Islam site:
From Harun Yahya:
Exerpt: Everything that we see, hear, feel, smell or taste is a perception, and nothing exists except at that level.
Matter Created in the Sphere of Perceptions and Imagination
We're now led to a most important truth: Since the only world we can deal with is one of perceptions, all these perceptions must be created and displayed to us by a Creator possessed of infinite knowledge, wisdom and power. That Creator is Almighty God-the Lord of all the Worlds, in the words of the Qur'an.
A clearer expression of this important truth is this: God has created from nothing all that exists. Yet as Islamic scholars have written, all entities are created in the sphere of "perceptions and imagination." Since God has breathed into man His Spirit, man perceives part of these perceptions and gives them such names as "the world," "the universe," "matter" and "objects." In any case, it is God Who taught man these names. All of these perceptions, created by God, submit to Him unconditionally and act in accordance with His will. No entity is created independent of God. Only God is real. Everything else is an illusion at the level of perceptions.
*Allah* (glorified and exalted is He)
Some of the questions this site explores are: Allah ~ Does it mean God? Is there evidence God exists? What proof is there? Where is God? What is the origin of God? Does God have limitations? Why did God create everything? Did God create evil too? Does God know the future? Why so many religions? God of the Jews and Christians? Truth about the Moon God.
*The 99 Beautiful Names of Allah*
From the Qur'an: The most beautiful names belong to God, so call on Him thereby. (7:180)
Those who believe, and whose hearts find satisfaction in the remembrance of GOD, for without doubt in the remembrance of God do hearts find satisfaction. (13:28)
