"The Qur’an is not a book of theology, and the Prophetﷺ was not a theologian. The Qur’an does not dogmatically explain what people should or should not think about God. Instead, it reveals itself as the Word of God. It is God speaking. And if one is listening to God, one has no need for someone who will tell him about God. God reveals Himself to the attentive listener: “And if the Qur’an is recited to you, then listen to it attentively and be silent, that you may be shown mercy.” (7:204)."
