thanks for the explanation, Yes I did not have to explain God to an unbeliever based on falsifiability and logic ( its not my thing)

But, I do not agree with your narrative of only accepting that there is only one way of reaching the truth like through logical Argumentation

Not sure how many revert or Muslims you have met, who have different reasons for accepting a religion; it could be the historical accuracy of the Quran, scientific miracles mentioned in the Quran, linguistics, explanation of suffering or Evil or existence, how Islam solves social issues, the concept of monotheism etc, and the reasoning is based on their experience and knowledge and accepting the fact that Quran can only be from a higher being

So please do not be stubborn, and dismiss any other way by just saying they are based on emotions (they are not and perfectly logical), also it does not matter to me if you accept my thesis or not everyone has free will so they can choose what they want; even recently two popular atheists Dawkins and Ayan Harris are turning toward Christianity after confusing so many Atheist.

(To answer your one linear way of thinking) I shared the link earlier which you would not have read most probably ( https://www.hamzatzortzis.com/the-qurans-argument-for-gods-existence/)

The Qur’an provides a powerful argument for God’s existence: “Or were they created by nothing? Or were they the creators [of themselves]? Or did they create the heavens and Earth? Rather, they are not certain.”[4]

1) The universe is finite.

2) Finite things could have come from nothing, created themselves, been ultimately created by something created, or been created by something uncreated.

3) They could not have come from nothing, created themselves, or have been ultimately created by something created.

4) Therefore, they were created by something uncreated.

These are the arguments normally used to prove the existence of Gos

)

1) Contingency Argument

2) Fine-tuning argument

3) Ontological Argument

4) Predisposition belief in God (In Islam we have a concept of Fitrah which every child is born with: which I mentioned to you earlier as well as concepts of Justice, Mercy, Love, etc are ingrained in humans) You can search more on this research, https://medium.com/backyard-theology/are-humans-beings-pre-disposed-to-believe-in-god-54cb6760eda9
