Answers to your questions
This is the answer to the question, how can muslims believe in a god they have never seen. I am answering this question myself because I always wanted someone to ask me this question.
Answer to this question is, that you do not need to see or have a sensory perception of something to know that it exists. I'll give you a simple example. If you are sitting in a train, and you look out of the window, you will be able to see the engine, but you will not be able to see the driver, eventhough you know that he exists, and is driving.

Your question reminds me of an incident. There was this learned Islamic personality, and his name was Bahlool. He is still famous for his sarcastic, and rather, funny, way of preaching. Bahlool saw a teacher, who was giving lecture to his students. The teacher was saying, " Why can't we see Allah if he exists?" Bahlool took a stone and threw it towards the teacher. It hit the teacher. The teacher complained and said it had hurt him and said his forehead was paining. Bahlool asked him to show him the pain. He said if it's paining, why can't he see the pain.

There are so many things in this world which are just based on theories. For example the Big Bang (the theory that the earth n everything in universe was produced after a Big Bang when two bodies collided). No one has seen it, but we have seen what it has produced. We haven't seen God but we have seen what he has made.
