What Does 'The Coloring of Allah' Mean in Surah 2:138?

I’ve been reflecting on Surah 2:138: “[We follow] the coloring of Allah. And who is better than Allah in coloring? And we are worshippers of Him.” This raises three questions: 1. Does Allah have a colour? If so, is it black like Africans, white like Europeans, yellow like Asians, or another shade? 2. Who is speaking here – Allah or Muhammad? If it’s Allah, does He worship Himself or suggest another deity? If it’s Muhammad, is this divine text or human words? What insights do you draw from this verse?
