Bismillah,
Not to put burdens on, but to put my thoughts in this.
For me Allah, Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala and the Creator is the One and Only. It tells me what He is capable of doing. There cannot be any misunderstandings concerning that.
Read this very fundamental and beautiful Surah from the Qur'an,
''Say: He is Allah, the One and Only;
Allah, the Eternal, Absolute;
He begetteth not, nor is He begotten;
And there is none like unto Him.''
The Qur'an 112:1-4
The clearness of this is astonishing, but also gives no room for misinterpretation.
A begotten child must be of the same nature as his father, and if God would have begotten a child He therefore would not be UNIQUE - THE ONE AND ONLY.
If He begets He will not be the CREATOR of everything.

"There is God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. Of course, you know that. God in 3 Persons. Each had their role. Looking at the original language of the Genesis account and the context used, it is God the Father who is referenced. Jesus had His own roles in creation as did the Holy Spirit."
Genesis is one of the books in Torah, how come that Jews that read and follow this book never have understood that God is three, a trinity or a tri-unity (astaghfirullah) and not One? Why do they insist on that ''Oh hear Israel, the Lord is one...'? They do not even acknowledge Isa, peace be upon him, as a Prophet, any lesser as Messiah? (astaghfirullah) Does not this bring the alarm clock to start ringing?
