Allah is Brahman;Brahman is Allah part1

(FROM SRI AUROBINDO'S LIFE DIVINE GLOSSARY,PAGE 1075)



[Yusufali 112:1] Say: He is Allah, the One and Only;


[Yusufali 112:2] Allah, the Eternal, Absolute;


[Yusufali 112:3] He begetteth not, nor is He begotten;


[Yusufali 112:4] And there is none like unto Him.











[Yusufali 85:8] And they ill-treated them for no other reason than that they believed in Allah, Exalted in Power, Worthy of all Praise!-


[Yusufali 85:9] Him to Whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth! And Allah is Witness to all things.



He who chooses the infinite has been chosen by the infinite.
- Sri Aurobindo
