For me eternity is just an approximation we use for very large numbers

Infinity is impossible to exist, in the past or future.

I would never have expected to read from you that Allah is just very, very powerful but not infinitely powerful or infinitely anything else.

Instead of all merciful do you say very, very, very merciful?

Infinity is just a concept, it cannot be real!
We can only say that there is no restrictions on God
for example infinitely merciful may means that he forgives everything; this is wrong as he (chooses) no to.

for example:
Nostradamus wrote
Century 2, Quatrain #28
"The last son of the man with the prophet's name will bring Diana to her day of rest.

If you accept that this refers to Dodi ElFayed and Diana death, this statement must come from God to predict such event, even if Nostradamus himself was a liar/mistaken in many occasions.

Well, first off, the original text of Nostradamus' quatrain refers to "Diane" with an 'e' on the end, not "Diana," which was princess Diana's given name.

So in addition to other problems (such as the prophet's name being very common and the dangling participle 'repos'), you've altered the text to make it fit the facts.

Quote:Le penultiesme du surnom du Prophete,
Prendra Diane pour son iour & repos:
Loing vaguera par frenetique teste,
En deliurant vn grand peuple d'impos.

The penultimate of the surname of the Prophet
Will take Diane for his day and rest:
He will wander far because of a frantic head,
And delivering a great people from subjection.

(ETA: A website I was reading pointed out that a reasonable interpretation of the reference to 'du surnom du Prophete' would be to Nostradamus' own surname, seeing as these are his prophesies. Is Mohammed actually the prophet of Islam's surname?)
surname refers to Dodi surname which is Mohamed.

Anyway a single future prediction is not a logical or scientific proof by itself; you may accept some and reject some.
You need to look into the number of such predictions in Islam to understand that they cannot be coincidences.
