What is a "god"?

[idolfree1]

Peace be upon you,

What are your understandings of the word "god"?

When the word "God" is mentioned, what picture comes to your mind?

What is the proper understanding of the "attributes" of the God, and are there really 99 of them?


I consider The God to be ALL THAT THERE IS, BOTH PERCEIVABLE AND IMPERCIEVABLE. When I hear the mention of the God, I do not think of a picture in my head, instead, I think of the laws that govern the creations.

Please let me hear your opinions.

This thread has more details about attributes:

99 Names of Allah (swt), 99 Names of Muhammad (pbuh)
