With regards to point 4, the 99 names of Allah supports this. It's very precise on which parts Allah is powerful at, e.g. The Creator, The Raiser of the Dead. There is still omnipotence, just not infinitely so. Also if you look at wording, it's things like "Most Merciful" rather than infinitely merciful. |

وَلِكُلٍّ وِجْهَةٌ هُوَ مُوَلِّيهَا ۖ فَاسْتَبِقُوا الْخَيْرَاتِ ۚ أَيْنَ مَا تَكُونُوا يَأْتِ بِكُمُ اللَّهُ جَمِيعًا ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ - 2:148
بَدِيعُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ ۖ وَإِذَا قَضَىٰ أَمْرًا فَإِنَّمَا يَقُولُ لَهُ كُن فَيَكُونُ - 2:117
And you have overlooked other attributes, such as al-Qadir.
I also want to say that translations often lack the complete meaning of the original text. We can't base our theology upon a translation such as "Most Merciful".
