In Islam, Allah is believed to be omnipotent, or all-powerful, and has many powers, including:
Creation
Allah is the creator of the universe, the heavens, the earth, and all living things.
Governance
Allah governs the affairs of kingdoms, commands and forbids, and gives and takes away power.
Predestination
Allah's omnipotence allows him to determine the future of humans, even though Muslims have free will.
Paradise and Hell
Allah will create Paradise and Hell in a nature that is unknown to humans.
Some say that Allah's power is demonstrated in the following ways:
Raising the heavens without pillars
Making the sun and moon subservient
Regulating affairs and providing signs to meet the Lord
Sending apostles before humans and giving them wives and children
Some say that people should express gratitude to Allah for all blessings and deal with others in a kind and gentle manner.
