God in Islam is attributed with absolute omniscience. God knows the past, the present, and the future. It is compulsory for a Muslim to believe that God is indeed omniscient as stated in one of the six articles of faith which is: To believe that God's divine decree and predestination; Say: Do you instruct God about your religion?
