We present several arguments in two major categories. The first is based on the divine attribute of everlastingness: if God’s everlasting attributes are expressed in the creation and the universe has a finite past, then God created a multiverse. The second category involves perfect being theology: if some of God’s attributes express themselves in the creation, and God has every compossible perfection, then we should expect God to create a multiverse.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMultiverseIslamic TheismKalamPhilosophical TheologyIslamic theism and the multiverseArticle15711610.3390/rel15070861Q1WOS:0012773750000012-s2.0-85199541115Q1
