ALLAH is referred to as "Him". IS He human-like?
If you speak English, you use the words "him" and "she" a lot and it is very easy to give people wrong ideas about God.
The female equivalent for 'God' is 'Goddess'. Some believe that God has female partners. Reducing God to a human family person is unacceptable in Islam.
The Almighty calls himself "ALLAH" in the Qur'an. This Arabic word has no plural and no male or female equivalents. Oh by the way, The Almighty is not an old man who posed for Michelangelo!
