Real Mount Sinai: The Forgotten Mountain of God – Living Passages

How can you tell if it's really a god talking to you, and not, say, your own subconscious mind?

Here's one useful question to ask.

Guess who Allah always agreed with?

Muhammad's favorite wife 'Aisha once said to him: Isn't it interesting how Allah always backs you in every argument?

 

How can you tell when it's really a god talking to you?

Ask yourself: Does the god agree with me?

If the answer is Yes, then the answer is probably No.
