Allah has personal Power
The Holy Qur’an describes Allah as Almighty or One Who has unlimited power. We cannot even imagine how powerful Allah is. By His inconceivable power He keeps innumerable planets on their respective orbits. Furious storms, hurricanes, the concomitant ominous streaks of blinding lightning, disastrous cyclones, coupled with cataclysmal volcanic eruptions are the slightest exhibition of His awe-inspiring incalculable power. With the unlimited power He possesses, Allah performs multifarious activities. Allah’s possession of such an attribute firmly establishes Him as a person. Obviously, He is not a person like us with limited power and strength but a Supreme Powerful Person Who is inexorably progressive.
Thus the Holy Qur’an states,
Innallaha ‘ala kuli shay-’in-Qadir: “Allah is Able to do all things.” (2.20)
Innallaha la-Qawiyun ‘Aziz: “Verily Allah is Strong, Almighty.” (22.40)
Thus Allah is Qadir, or able to do everything, Qawiyun, Strong and Aziz, Almighty. Allah has Qudrat, Power and creates everything in the heavens and on the earth, He gives life to the dead, creates moving and non-moving living entities. He is supremely Almighty. This means that Allah has ability and power to do anything He desires. This power belongs to Him, it is His personal Power. Thus Allah is a Person who has the ultimate Power.
