We are "things". God is not even a "thing".
(Sura 6 Verse 103 ) Vision perceives Him not, but He perceives [all] vision; and He is the Subtle, the Acquainted.
(Sura 42 11 ) [He is] Creator of the heavens and the earth. He has made for you from yourselves, mates, and among the cattle, mates; He multiplies you thereby. There is nothing like unto Him, and He is the Hearing, the Seeing.
In other words we apply the word "things" on anything that is not him.
Three things.
1. That is ALL a pile of word salad. You are now just digging into semantics in an attempt to redefine Gaud as "not a thing" to buy yourself another post or so while you think you've dodged my argument.
2. The verses you've posted do not contain justification for the assertion that Gaud is "not a thing." They make some vague statements about Allah's vague qualities and that's about it.
3. Even if we decide to call Gaud something else (an entity, an object, a force, a being, or whatever), it still leaves you with the problem that if he is the only element of reality that does not have be the product of an action, that is special pleading and you just lost.
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)
