Theists: What do you mean when you say that God is 'perfect'?

[Mystic]

The nature of all of God's Titles/written Names is they remain ambiguous without a light and sight through a witness and guide appointed by him.

The true name of God is a living witness who connects everyone to God.  The beautiful names of God are the ways to God, the navigators to the just city. They perceive the light as is, and are the means to know God.

Even if you list all of God's attributes endless, all they do is remind of a connection we have with source, but the symbols you write remind of something from creation and it's link to the Creator.

The Creator possess all greatness and praise in creation, and all of it belongs to him and is borrowed from him, but the means to truly praise God with middle harmony is by the Leader of the humans and the witness among them.  There is no way to know God but through a living connection who connects the highest reality to the material realm, a( 23 )   It is that of which Allah gives good tidings to His servants who believe and do righteous deeds. Say, [O Muhammad], "I do not ask you for this message any payment [but] only good will through kinship." And whoever commits a good deed - We will increase for him good therein. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Appreciative.nd connects guidance at all levels, his stations that are found everywhere.

That is why Quran says "Say: no wage/reward do I ask for it except the love of the near kin (of mine)". (part of 42:23).

It is because that love of them as connectors to God means you appreciate the connection to God and love God's greatest gift and favor to humanity mainly guiding them through a revelation with appointed guides to interpret it correctly and manifest its wonders if and only if we center our attention to them and obey them when we are reminded, and seek knowledge regarding it from them when we do not know.

*CORRECTION:

That verse doesn't include the sentence -(of mine)-.
The verse is:

Sura 42, The Quran:
( 23 )   It is that of which Allah gives good tidings to His servants who believe and do righteous deeds. Say, [O Muhammad], "I do not ask you for this message any payment [but] only good will through kinship." And whoever commits a good deed - We will increase for him good therein. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Appreciative.

So please; twisting verses to suit your opinion is not a decent thing.
So my kinship and your kinship and Osama's cousins are the one meant: kinship. Your family.

 Do you want a one on one debate about 42:23 in debate section?
