Answer:

 

Allah is everywhere everyone

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is none worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

 

Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 2 Surah Baqarah verse 186:

186    When my servants ask thee (O Prophet (saws)) concerning Me, (tell them) I am indeed close (to them); I listen to the prayer of every suppliant when he calleth on Me; let them also with a will listen to My call and believe in Me; that they may walk in the Right Way.

 

Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter Chapter 34 Surah Saba verse 50:

50      Say: "If I am astray I only stray to the loss of my own soul: but if I receive guidance it is because of the inspiration of my Lord to me: it is He Who Hears all things and is (ever) Near."

 

Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 56 Surah Waqiah verses 83-87:

83      Then why do ye not (intervene) when (the soul of the dying man) reaches the throat

84      And ye the while (sit) looking on!

85      But We are nearer to him than ye, and yet see not

86      Then why do you not, if you are exempt from (future) account

87      Call back the soul if ye are true (in your claim of independence)?

 

Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 6 Surah Anaam verses 59-60:

59      With Him are the keys of the Unseen the treasures that none Knoweth but He.  He Knoweth whatever there is on the earth and in the sea. Not a leaf doth fall but with His Knowledge: there is not a grain in the darkness (or depths) of the earth nor anything fresh or dry (green or withered) but is (inscribed) in a Record Clear!

60      It is He Who doth take your souls by night and hath Knowledge of all that ye have done by day.  By day doth He raise you up again; that a term appointed be fulfilled; in the end unto Him will be your return; then will He show you the truth of all that ye did.

 

Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 50 Surah Qaf verse 16:

16      It was We who created man and We Know what dark suggestions his soul makes to him: for We are nearer to him than (even his) jugular vein.

 

Beloved brother in Islam, we could quote you Aayaah upon Aayaah from the Glorious Quran whereby the Lord Most Majestic, Most Supreme Declares time and time again that He is the All-Knowing, All-Hearing, All-Seeing….and He is everywhere and near everything in His Creation, not in His Majestic Self, but in HIS ABSOLUTE AND PERFECT KNOWLEDGE.

 

Your Question: Can you please find me verses of the Quran to proof that Sufist do Shirk a sthey beleive that Allah is in everyone of us whic mean that Allah is a creation but Allah is the Creator and can`t be created.

Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 42 Surah Ash-Shura verse 11:

There is Absolutely nothing like Him (Allah) in the whole Universe!!!  He is the All-Hearing,  The All-Seeing!!  To Him Alone belong the keys of the treasures of the heavens and the earth!! 

 

Allah says in Chapter 112, Surah Ikhlas Verse 1-4

Say: He is Allah, the One and Only. Allah is Independent of all, and all are dependent on Him. Neither has He any offspring, nor is He the offspring of anyone; and NONE is equal to Him in rank.

 

Beloved brother it is an absolute and utter blasphemy and a clear and manifest act of ‘shirk’ to believe that the Lord Most Majestic Most Supreme is ‘in’ everyone or everywhere in His Majestic Self; for there is not even an iota of evidence in the Glorious Quran for the formation of such a belief!   The ones who claim or hold such a belief should be asked to prove their evidence for their blasphemy from the Glorious Quran, if indeed they are truthful.

 

Like most misguided people, these people form or invent a belief of their own imagination and try to stretch the clear guidance of the Quran to suit their false beliefs….rather than aligning one’s belief to the guidance of the Glorious Quran; for that then alone can be deemed guidance!

 

If one trusts, obeys, and follows the guidance and commands of Allah and His Messenger (saws),   one can be assured of never ever being misled;   but if one believes, obeys and follows any other guidance, other than that of Allah and His Messenger (saws), one can be assured of being led astray.  

 

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me alone.  Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

 

Your brother and well wisher in Islam,
