Both the Bible and the Quran tell us God has always existed and there
never was a time He did not exit. As such, He is the Eternal, without
beginning and without end. He is the only creator and sustainer of all
that exists and nothing and no one exists alongside Him, nor does He ave any partners. He tells us, He is not created, nor is He like His
creation in anyway. He calls Himself by a number of names and three of
them are:
• A) The First - (Al-Awal)
• B) The Last - (Al Akhir)
• C) The Eternal and the One who is sought after by His
creation, while He has no need from them at all. (As-Samad)
• D) He is not a man and He has no progeny or offspring.
• E) He is not what He creates nor is He compared to it.
He always has existed and He never was created, as He is not like His
creation, nor similar to it, in any way.
The prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, explained the devil would
come to a person and ask them questions about creation; "Who created
this or that?" to which the reply would be; "Allah" until he would ask;
"Who created Allah?" At this stage the prophet advised us to drop this
train of thought. Obviously, God - the real God, must be eternal and not
have to be created.

The Quran tells us:
Allah! La ilaha illa Huwa (There is no god to worship except Him), the Ever Living, the
Sustaniner and Protector of all that exists. He doesn't get tired and He doesn't sleep.
Everything in the universe belongs to Him. Who then, could intercede between Him and his
creatures without His Permission? He Knows everything about them and they have no knowledge
except as He wills. His kursi (stool or chair) extends over the entire universe and He never grows
weary of guarding and preserving it. He is Most Hight, the Most Great.
[This Verse 2:255 is called Ayat-ul-Kursi.] Surah Baqarah 2:255
This verse truly presents the comprehensive represenation of God in a way without trying to
define Him by comparing Him to His creation, but rather as being the Absolute in all of His
Attributes and Characteristics.
