Can God Create A Rock That He Can't Lift?
Assalamualaikum
What does Ghamidi sahab says about the question that can God make a rock so heavy that even He can’t lift that?If He can then He can’t lift and so how can he be most powerful if He can’t than how He can be God?

The concept of God is not based on whether or not He can do some hypothetical things. As long as God is more powerful than others, we have no choice but to follow him. Good thing is he has not forced us to follow him blindly but has given us reason, rationale and a free will to believe Him or not. Whether God can make such a rock that he can or cannot lift is not going to make any difference to our lives or to the concept of God.

As Ghamidi sahab said that this is based on fiction,we can’t take God to laboratory to observe.But a person can say that whole idea of God is also made by us,A transcendence God.An idea to which if one disagrees so this is said that He is transcendence, can’t be covered by imagination.And so this idea can’t be defeated?

“Whole idea of God is made by us” is a strong statement. The concept of God is based on rational arguments ranging from intuitive arguments to empirical evidence. Please see for details:

Thanks for answering.
We can say that everything has a creator and logically it should end on one God. But how did the idea of transcendence come?Like a person can say that people couldn’t answer the questions on God so they added the idea of transcendence. That we shouldn’t ask this,God is transcendence and beyond our imagination.
And on the other hand that the argument for “Judgement day”,that we want that there should be absolute judgement,and many good doers get bad result in this world.And for that we made the idea of “Judgement day” to console ourselves, that whatever happens in this world at last you will get justice?

And also as said that if a person unaffected of any external factors (purely on his birth or innate nature), when told about God so he would leap towards it like a child towards his mother.Is there any evidence or experiment done on it?

Hasnat Amar Sahab, your follow-up questions are not directly related to the primary question. As per AG code of conduct, you’re advised to create a separate topic for these follow-up questions. Thanks.

This question is baseless, for both who believe in God and for those who don’t believe in God. For those who don’t believe in existence of God, this question didn’t arise, What God can do and what he can’t.
For those who believe in God and are Muslims, this ayat of Quran is sufficient.
اِنً اّلّلہ علیٰ کلِّ شئٍُ قدیر
Allah is capable of doing everything.
