A Call for Unity



                      fore all things, and in Him all things hold together. (Colossians,
                      1: 16-17)
                      The God who made the world and everything in it, he who is Lord
                      of heaven and earth.. (Act, 17: 24)
                      When they heard it, they raised their voices together to God and
                      said, 'Sovereign Lord, Who made the heaven and the earth, the
                      sea, and everything in them.. (Acts 4: 24)
                      The Torah also reveals that Allah created everything from noth-
                      ing:
                      The Maker of heaven and Earth, the sea, and everything in them
                      – the Lord, who remains faithful forever. (Psalm, 146: 6)
                      In the beginning Allah created the heavens and the Earth.
                      (Genesis, 1: 1)
                      .. You are the Lord, You alone; You have made heaven, the heav-
                      en of heavens, with all their host, the earth and all that is on it,
                      the seas and all that is in them. To all of them You give life, and
                      the host of heaven worships You.... (Nehemiah, 9: 6)


                                Allah Is the Only God


                      Muslims believe that there is no deity besides Allah,
                 Who creates everything from nothing and creates it faultless-
                 ly and perfectly, is great and supreme, knows the essence and
                 the secrets of everything, is eternal and infinite, was neither
                 born nor gives birth, is free from all faults and imperfections,
                 is alive, knows everything, has power over everything, is
