Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh my brother

be careful that you are not limiting Allah's omnipotence to your 'logic'

Allah is the master of creation not a set of human constructs that you call 'logic'.

"Allah (SWT) is able to do all things" (Holy Quran 2:109)

tell me where in Quran or Hadeeth there is anything at all that limits Allah Almighty's omnipotence to what we humans deem as 'logic'?

tell me where in Quran or Hadeeth there is anything at all that says that Allah Almighty cannot make a square triangle?

you are assuming that this is my idea and it is not something that I have heard from a Sheikh.

Infact brother suleiman is right. A square triangle is a logical impossibility and hence it can not exist so the question whether Allah can create a "square triangle" or not is superfluous and meaningless. Even if a person responds to such a question with a NO , it does not effects Allah 's omnipotence as the question is referring to a logical impossibility which can not exist/ Same logical impossibilities are posed in various other questions as well , like "Can God make a stone which he can not lift himself?" , "Can God lie?" etc etc.
