As a Christian I also probably agree because from a Christian point of view God consists of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, all together as one. Also that that human beings are made in God's image something Muslims would disagree with. Jesus is the son of God and that God is love. God is our father but Muslims would disagree to saying Allah is their father. Christians would disagree that Allah is anything like this universe. The Christian God and the Muslim God are different. Allah has many names and some are human terms which is considered to be shirk but the Christian God is not like that and is more straight forward.
As a materialist they would agree to this is because they believe in no God and therefore everything happened for a reason and is proven. It must be real or they do not believe and so to them Allah is nothing. If Muslims suffer pain then surely Allah should stop the pain but doesn’t. They believe that there is no religion and that other sees science can prove everything. Therefore Allah cannot exist and that so it would make no sense as to why Muslims believe in God. Allah has never been seen so how can a materialist know that Allah is nothing like this universe.
Some believe that there are many Gods, some believe that God is everything and completely different from Allah and that God is not separate from the world but is the world. The way Allah is treated is not the same as way other people believe in their God. Some believe that God is human like but cannot be there for us always. Also God does not reward or punish humans, that the universe is infinite and eternal. Man makes religion, religion does not make man. Richard Dawkins, an atheist believe that the God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it. Some believe that God is dead and so someone like Allah is not true
I would agree with the statement because I don’t think Allah is anything like this universe and that God should be able to be used in human terms, something that is not allowed with Allah. Allah cannot be described by human terms but some of the 99 names of Allah are human terms. This is not very clear and so it seems some Muslims disagree with it. I believe that god does enter the universe and is everywhere some that Allah doesn’t do, Allah is entirely transcendent. Although I do believe in one God and that God is the creator and sustainer of the world. I can see why it would make Allah makes no sense but then why have the 99 names if some are human terms.
To conclude it seems that the Islamic concept of God sometimes doesn’t make any sense and that that there isn’t really a convincing argument with the statement. It doesn’t seem to sway to either side because each side how its pros and cons. However if I did have to reach with one I would agree with the statement.
