🏵️🏵️🏵️ Dear Kim,

Thank you for your insightful writings. Your reflections on the nature of divinity resonate deeply. Similarly, in Islam, we find a profound emphasis on the oneness and uniqueness of God (Tawhid), which aligns with your discourse on the dangers of projecting human attributes onto the divine.

The Quran reminds us in Surah Al-Ikhlas (112:1-4):

"Say, 'He is Allah, [who is] One,

Allah, the Eternal Refuge.

He neither begets nor is born,

Nor is there to Him any equivalent.'"

These verses encapsulate the essence of God in Islam—transcendent and incomparable to creation. Just as you urge caution against interpretations of God that diminish His majesty, Islam similarly warns against anthropomorphism.

I invite you Kim, to delve deeper into this dialogue. Understanding our places within the vastness of the divine can lead to a richer, more nuanced appreciation of spirituality that transcends personal images and biases.

Let us join together in exploring how these sacred principles can guide us toward a purer understanding of the divine. How do you perceive the relationship between human understanding and divine truth across different faiths?

Warm regards,

Mohamed, Ph.D
