Theists, please describe how you experience your god

Allergic to any spiritual effort,  they take their blindness as proof God doesn't exist.

*we?

You mean "YOU".
I don't share your opinion. I don't "see" God and I never said that.

Exactly. That's why we have the design to conclude God from it.
We can't realize the full scale of God or demonstrate it:



Quote:https://quran.com/19/65?translations=20

Sura 19, The Quran:

Sahih International

(65) Lord of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them - so worship Him and have patience for His worship. Do you know of any similarity to Him?"

Nothing is like God:



Quote:https://quran.com/42/11?translations=19

Sura 42, The Quran:

Sahih International

(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.

Demonstrating God is not valid, that's why Muslims never draw God or use pictures of him. That's "Anthropomorphism", and it's highly forbidden in Islam.
