Tawhid (Oneness of God)
Islam views God as being the One & only God, he has no partners, and has no family, and there is none like him. This is said in the Qur'an. ''Say: "He is Allah the Inique, the Absolute, the Eternal, He begetteth not, nor is He begottten, and there is none like unto him." -Qur'an (Surah al-Ikhlas) 112:1-4  ''Islam teaches to worship Allah (God) alone with no partners. The Qur'an explains this alot. Also it was talked about by Muhammad (pbuh). Islam teaches Allah is not created and will never die. Islam rejects that God has any children. And warn those who say: Allah has taken a son. ''They have no knowledge of it, nor had their fathers; a grievous word it is that comes out of their mouths; they speak nothing but a lie. -Qur'an 18:4-5 ''This talks about people like Christians. Islam teaches God created the heavens and the earth. Who made the earth a resting place for you and the heaven a canopy and (Who) sends down rain from the cloud, then brings forth with it subsistence for you of the fruits; therefore do not set up rivals to Allah while you know.-Qur'an 2:22  Islam also teaches God made mankind from clay and Jinn from smokeless fire. He made angles out of light in Islam. ''He brings life, death, and then life again according to Islam. How do you deny Allah and you were dead and He gave you life? Again He will cause you to die and again bring you to life; then you shall be brought back to Him.-Qur'an 2:28''

Islam says God exists without a place and he has no physical form.
