Amazing!
Q59 Why is there God?
A59 There is no doubt that there are different kinds of questions: good, bad, favourable and unfavourable, odd, strange, and unusual: but this question is the most amazing one. The amazement does not lie in that the existence of God is denied rather, it lies in saying: 'There is God, but why'?
The main reason for our amazement at this question is that when one accepts the existence of God, then He is necessarily accepted with all those attributes mentioned about Him. Therefore, the question: 'Why is there God?' should cease to exist, while there is a complete answer in every attribute of God as to why He is there. For instance, God is there because He is the Creator, God is there because He is the Sustainer (raziq), God is there because He is the King: God is there because He is the Cherisher (rabb): God is there because He is the Beneficent (rahman), etc. etc.
In short, each of the hundred names of God is a clear proof of the necessity and importance of God's existence. Those who believe in God's existence, first clearly understand the philosophy: "Why there must be God".
