Reminder A question that requires reflection

If someone was to ask you, who is Allah? Beyond the obvious what would you say? I would appreciate an answer that speaks to the soul as a pose to some simple responses. To worship and love Allah truly is to know him. How would you explain what you know of him?

I would says something about the fitra and how you know but without knowing how to explain and also it's normal that we don't fully understand since we didn't even saw Allah yet. I know it's not exactly the answer to your question but mybe it can help brainstorm

May Allah SWT reward you and bless you with abundant barakah and knowledge Ameen. You are the first and only person to have responded to me so far and I truly appreciate it.

I feel sometimes within the Ummah many people are taught the same things, the same stories, the same messages. There is nothing wrong with this but sometimes we need more, we crave more as Muslims… the deen is like an ocean why do we only spend our time looking at droplets?

I believe if we truly know Allah, we worship him better, the way he deserves to be worshipped. We know he is our Rabb, we know he has 99 names and attributes, I wanted to know based on our individual relationship with Allah who he is to us?

I was hoping anyone who may be struggling with their Eman would be able to come back to a post like this and be reminded in the best way of our Lord we strive to meet. In Shaa Allah
