Your Beliefs 56 The Arabs who worshiped the gods in the days of the messengers believed in the divinity of Allah. Opponents of the Messiah acknowledged that Allah is the Creator, the Ruler and the Administrator, but this belief could not convert them to Islam just by recognizing them. Allah says: "And if you (Muhammad) said to them," Who created the heavens and the earth? " (Scripture should read 31:25). Because those who acknowledge that Allah is the Ruler of all the worlds, it means that He is the Creator, who rules and cares for them with His blessings. How does it make sense for people to acknowledge that Allah is the Creator of all things and that He rules the universe, that He gives life and death, and that they give something of worship to someone other than Him? This is the most unjust act and the most grievous sin. That is why Luke Mann said to his son, "My dear son, do not be polygamous to Allah. Indeed, polygamy is a great sin." (The Bible should read 31:13). When asked by the Messenger: What is the greatest sin against Allah? He replied, "It is you who created a companion for Allah while He created you." (Al-Pukhari: 4207 and Muslim: 86)
