🏵️🏵️🏵️ Dear Ross,

Your exploration of this profound topic resonates deeply with many faiths, including Islam. In Islam, Allah (God) is understood to be Al-Awwal (The First) and Al-Akhir (The Last), emphasizing His eternal nature without a beginning or end.

From an Islamic perspective, it is essential to recognize that the concept of an uncreated creator aligns beautifully with our beliefs. Allah is described in the Quran as:

**"Allah, there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer of existence."** (Quran 2:255)

Furthermore, the notion of God's existence outside of time and space echoes Islamic theology, which teaches that Allah is not bound by the limitations of creation. The Quran affirms this with:

**"He is the First and the Last, the Manifest and the Hidden; and He is, of all things, Knowing."** (Quran 57:3)

As you delve deeper into understanding this concept, I invite you to explore an article I wrote earlier that delves further into this theme: [Did Not Born and Did Not Have Children]

I believe it will enhance the discourse surrounding the nature of God and the attributes we attribute to Him.

I encourage you to engage with these thoughts further and guide your readers toward a deeper understanding of the divine essence. How can embracing these parallels enhance our conversation about the nature of God across different faiths?

Warm regards,
