Connecting With a Being Not Like Us

Thank you so much for this question; very happy to receive it. I have answered this question in the article below; I’d really appreciate if you can take a look at it so that you can get a fuller picture and more comprehensive answer for your great question.

The article reads:

Your question is actually great because you already acknowledge that the Creator Allah Almighty is like nothing of His creation. Like He said in the Qur’an:

{[He is] Creator of the heavens and the earth. He has made for you from yourselves, mates, and among the cattle, mates; He multiplies you thereby. There is nothing like unto Him, and He is the Hearing, the Seeing.} (Qur’an 42: 11)

And He says: 

{Vision perceives Him not, but He perceives [all] vision; and He is the Subtle, the Acquainted.} (Qur’an 6: 103)

Then how do we communicate with Him?

How do you usually communicate with someone? You listen to them and you speak to them, right?

Well, He has given us His Verbatim and Direct Words (The Qur’an); in it He told us who He is, why did He bring us here, what our purpose in life is, how to gain peace, how to be successful, how to get the best reward and satisfaction in this life and in afterlife for eternity …
