Allah the Almighty said:
"Say: Tell me then, the things that you invoke besides Allah, -if Allah intended some harm
for me, could they remove His harm, or if He (Allah) intended some mercy for me, could they
withhold His Mercy? Say: Sufficient for me is Allah; in Him those who trust (i.e. believers) must
put their trust."
(39:38)
"Whoever wears talisman or an amulet would never see his wish fulfilled by Allah. And
whoever hangs a sea shell would never get peace and rest."
In an another version the Prophet (May the peace and blessing of Allah be upon him) is
reported to have said:
"Whoever wears a talisman has committed
Shirk
(polytheism)."

Allah the Almighty said:
"Verily, Allah forgives not that partners should be set up with Him in worship, but He
forgives except that (anything else) to whom He pleases."
(4:48, 116)
Prophet Ibrahim (May Allah be pleased with him) said:
"And keep me and my sons away from worshiping idols."
(14:35)

Who purifies Tauhid (from Shirk (giving a share of worship to something other than Allah)
etc) will enter Paradise without giving an Account Allah the Most Exalted said:
"Verily Abraham (May Allah be pleased with him) was indeed a model, devoutly obedient to
Allah, unswervingly true in faith and he was not of those who ascribed partners to Allah."
(16: 120)

At-Tirmidhi reports from Anas (May Allah be pleased with him): He heard Allah's Messenger (May the peace and blessing of Allah be upon him) saying:
"Allah the Most Exalted said: 'O son of Adam, were you to come to Me with the world full of sins, and meet Me without making anything partner to Me
(Shirk), I would come to you with a similar amount of forgiveness.' "

Narrated Ubadah bin As-Samit (May Allah be pleased with him),
that Allah's Messenger (May
the peace and blessing of Allah be upon him) said:
"Whoever testifies that there is nothing worthy of worship in truth (no God) except Allah
Alone, Who is without (peer or) partner, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger, and
that 'Iesa (Jesus) is the slave of Allah, His Messenger, and His Word which He bestowed in
Maryam (Mary) and a spirit (created) from Him, and that Paradise & Hell-fire are realities, Allah
will admit him into Paradise, whatever his deeds might be."
(Sahih Al-Bukhari, Hadith
No. 3252)
'Itban (May Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Prophet (May the peace and blessing of
Allah be upon him) said:
"Indeed Allah has forbidden for Hell the person who testifies: 'There is nothing worthy of
worship in truth (no true God) but Allah', seeking thereby nothing but Allah's Face (pleasure)."
(Al-Bukhari, Muslim).

Adam was created in his own image not the image of Allah

Al-Bukhaari (6227) and Muslim (2841) narrated from Abu Hurayrah that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Allaah created Adam in His image, and he was sixty cubits tall. When he created him he said, ‘Go and greet that group of angels who are sitting and listen to how they greet you, for that will be your greeting and the greeting of your descendents.’ So he said, ‘Al-salaamu ‘alaykum (peace be upon you),’ and they said, ‘Al-salaamu ‘alayka wa rahmat-Allaah (Peace be upon you and the mercy of Allaah.’ So they added (the words) ‘wa rahmat-Allaah.’ Everyone who enters Paradise will be in the form of Adam, but mankind continued to grow shorter until now.”
From this narration we learn that it is proven that Allaah has an image (soorah in Arabic), in a manner that befits Him, may He be glorified and exalted. His image is one of His attributes which cannot be likened to the attributes of created beings, just as His essence cannot be likened to their essence.
Everything that exists must inevitably have a form or image. Shaykh al-Islam said: “Just as everything that exists must have attributes that, so too everything that exists by itself must have a form or image. It is impossible for something that exists by itself not to have a form or image.”
What is meant, according to the scholars, is that Allaah created Adam with the ability to hear and see, and to speak when he wants. These are also attributes of Allaah, for He is All-Hearing, All-Seeing, and He speaks when He wants, and He has a Face, may He be glorified and exalted.
But it does not mean that there is any resemblance or likeness. Rather the image of Allaah is different from that of created beings. What is meant is that He is All-Hearing, All-Seeing, and He speaks when He wants, and He created Adam also able to hear and see, with a face and hands and feet. But man’s hearing is not like Allaah’s hearing, his seeing is not like Allaah’s seeing, his speaking is not like Allaah’s speaking. Rather Allaah has attributes that befit His majesty and might, and man has attributes that befit him, attributes that are finite and imperfect, whereas the attributes of Allaah are perfect, with no shortcomings, infinite and without end. Hence Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
“There is nothing like Him, and He is the All‑Hearer, the All‑Seer”
[al-Shoora 42:11]
“And there is none co‑equal or comparable unto Him”
[al-Ikhlaas 112:4]

”Our Lord descends every night to the heaven of this world when the last third of the night is still to come and says, “Who will call me so that I may answer him? Who will ask Me so that I give him? Who will ask forgiveness of Me so that I may forgive him”- Saheeh Bukhari.
- Allaah descends without Him leaving the Throne, He remains above the Throne (which is above the seven heavens)
- Allaah descends without coming under or beneath the heaven – and as the Salaf said to the Jahmiyyah who raised such doubts in relation to the nuzool (coming down), “We believe in a Lord who does whatever He wills”
- To all people in all parts of the earth, alongside the variation in the night and day, Allaah’s descent is for them during the last third of their night – and we are not able to understand the kaifiyyah (howness) of that – just like we are not able to understand the kaifiyyah (howness) of how Allaah will do the hisaab (accounting) of all the people at the same time.

Anything that has a beginning cannot be a god as it needed someone more powerful to give it life. Allah is the first who has lived forever and will live forever without dying, sleeping, or any other lapse in His perfect control of all that exists.
