1. Your question:

If God created everything- then who created God?

-- According to the Quran, Allah tells us that he is the only creator and sustainer of all that exists and that nothing and no one exists alongside him, NOR DOES HE HAVE ANY PARTNERS.

He tells us that he is not CREATED, nor is he like his creations in any way.

He always existed and he never was created.

2. How can we believe in God, when we can't see, hear, touch, smell, taste or even imagine what he is?

-- WE know fromthe teachings of Nabi Muhammad (SAW) that no one has ever actually seen God. HOwever, we learn in Islam to use our senses and our COMMON sense to recognize that all of this universe and its people could not possibly come into existence on its own. Something had to design it all and then put it into motion. that is beyond our ability to do, yet it is something that we can understand.

We dont have to see an artist to recognize a painting, correct? so, if we see paintings without seeing artists painting them, in the same way, we can prove that Allah created everything without having to see him.

-the Quran tells us that ALLAh is capable of doing anything that he wills to do. he can make a rock or anything for that matter that is so large or heavy that nothing in the entire universe can ove it. as regards to ALLAh 'Moving it", he is not in the universe and he does not resemble his creation. therefore, allah is never subject to the laws of the creation because he is BOTH the creator and the law giver. whenever he wants anything done, he merely says "kun fa kun" and it will be done.

Where is God?

IN the Quran Allah tells us clearly that there is nothing, anywhere in the universe that resembles him, nor is he ever in his creation. he tells us in the Quran that he creatoed the universe in six periods of time and then he "astawa 3ala al arsh" (rose up, above his throne). he is there and will remain there until the end of time.

Why did God create everything?

-- Allah says in the Quran that he did not create all of this for any foolish purpose. he tells us that he created us for the
