My beloved Creator

Al-Ghazzali defines what belief in submission to God's Will (islam) means:

Know that you have been created and that you have a Creator who is the Creator of all the universe and all that it contains.

He is One. He has no partner nor associate.

He is Unique, for He has no peer.

He always was; His existence has no beginning. He always shall be; there is no end to His existence. His existence in eternity and infinity is a necessary, for annihilation cannot touch Him. His existence is by His own essence.

He needs nothing but nothing is unneedful of Him.

Rather, He is established by His Own essence, and everything else is established through Him.
