I. Proof of Allah's Existence

I. Proof of Allah's Existence

This Great Universe and everything that is in it cannot 

be the product of chance, and could not have created itself. 

Signs testifying that Allah is the only Creator can be seen 

throughout the earth and in the very soul of each person. 

Allah says in the Qur‘an: 

It is Allah who created the sky and the earth, and

sent down from the sky water by which He 

brought forth fruits for your sustenance. He 

subjected for you the ships to sail upon the sea at 

His command, and He subjected for you the 

rivers. And He subjected for you the sun and 

moon in continuous cycles, and He subjected for

you the night and day. And He gave you all you 

asked Him for...

(Qur‘an 14: 32-34)

In the Qur‘an, Allah mentions Prophet Abraham‘s

(peace be upon him)

search for truth as an example of 

how those who follow Allah‘s signs will be rightly guided 

to the worship of Him alone; Allah says: 

In this way I showed Abraham the kingdom of 

the heavens and the earth so that he would have 

faith with understanding and certainty. When the 

night covered him with darkness, he saw a star 

and said: This is my Lord, but when it set, he 

said: I do not like those that set. When he saw the 

moon rising up, he said: This is my Lord, but 

when it set, he said: Unless my Lord guides me, I

will certainly be among the people who have 

gone astray. When he saw the sun rising up he 

said: This is my Lord, this is the greatest of all.

But when it set, he said: O my people! I am 

indeed free from what you join as partners with 

Allah. Verily, I have turned my face towards 

Allah who created the heavens and the earth and

I reject those who associate partners with Allah 

(in worship). (Qur‘an 6: 75-79)

The strongest proof for Allah‘s existence is through 

the creation itself. Thus, one will see that Allah

continuously instructs humankind to look to the universe, 

as this will affirm the divine truth of His existence, His 

greatness and that He alone should be worshipped.

Another obvious fact: He answers our prayers. 

Sometimes once the individual prays (supplicates) to 

Allah; He answers his prayer, and this is an indication of 

Allah‘s existence. Allah says in the Qur‘an:

Your Lord says: ‗supplicate to me, and I will 

answer your supplication‘. (Qur‘an 40: 60)
