The Greatness of Allah
My dear brothers and friends, whether it’s the earth or the skies, man or jinn or the angels, all of these are Allah’s (swt) creation, and Allah is their sole creator.
He says: (fa innahu ya’lamussirra wa akhfa) “He knows that which is secret as well as that which is yet more hidden” Taha 7. Sirr means talking softly, so that the person doesn’t understand (akhfa) what a person says to him self i.e. in his heart so that no one realizes, so in this situation the tongue doesn’t move and neither does the ear hear, and Allah says I am aware of that too.
So, the Lord whose knowledge is so perfect that He listens to the external as well as the internal, the soft and the loud, and besides all this: (wa ma tasqutu min waraqatin illa ya’lamuha) “And not a leaf falls but He knows it” Al-Ana’am 59.
Now just lets consider the trees in Chicago. Uncountable leaves are shed everyday. Allah says I am aware of all and all has been written in a clear decree. He says (min waraqah) “Wherever a leaf falls” (illa ya’lamuha) Your Lord knows where it fell or got lost or scattered away or floated away in the water or the squirrel ate it. All is clear in Allah’s knowledge.
Next the Almighty Wise says ? (wa la habbatin fee dulumaatil ardh) “And not even a grain amid the darkness of the earth”…….He knows the seed which is hidden in the darkness of the earth whether it is wet or dry. (wa la ratb wala yabis) “Nor anything fresh or withered but is known by Him” Read the rest of this entry »
