Subject:	how to explain Allah to Christians?
Question:	How can we explain the divinity and oneness of Allah to our Christian friends, what practical example can we use to demonstrate that God does not form into man and dies and etc.
Answer:	Salaam alaykum, When speaking to Christians we cannot use the Quran as a proof. We must use our intellects which we both share. You have to start by explaining how God must be absolute perfection; must have all of the attributes of perfection and cannot be characterized by any attribute which would negate absolute perfection. Some of such attributes would be having a body, being compounded, and definitely dying. It is a long process and not easy but it can be done. Fi amanillah
