Assalaamu Alaykum I know ALLAH is far above gender and that HE doesnt mean the same as male, but what is the wisdom behind it? Please let me know with some authentic sources. ABd |

slm Unfortunately I don't have the authentic sources but maybe I can jog someone's memory.. I heard it said that in the orginal Arabic, the word is the same for he and she and it, so that it is not a specific gender which is given to Allah. Now I know this is probably of no use to you whatsoever but maybe someone else can elaborate better on it. wasalaam eleanor |
