Yes Rayaan I've said before... God has to be more than nature. As actuality only God is everything. Everything emanating from him has to be lesser than him. You took my statement too literally. I'm surprised that you don't know my position on that already.
If you don't believe that the creator and the created are the same substance, you must be saying that Allah is not prima. Another substance not Allah existed at least at the same time, if not before Allah. So Allah is not the creator of everything, but must owe his creation to a previous force, the same as if he appeared at the same time as this separate substance that he did not create. Either you're wrong in that or Allah is demoted.
