Knowing Our Lord (part 3)

GOD IS THE MAGNIFICENT

“Everything in the heavens and everything in the Earth    belongs to Him. He is the Most High, the Magnificent.”

(Surat ash-Shura, 4)

God’s magnificence is beyond our comprehension. But, when we look at what He has created, we can grasp His greatness. We can see how powerful He is.

The sky that holds up tons of clouds,

the mountains that rise thousands of feet into the sky,

the seas containing millions of kinds of different creatures,

the forests where many animals live….

These things and many more than we can count are among the clear signs of God’s greatness.

 

 

GOD DOES WHAT HE WILLS

“He is God – there is no deity but Him. He is the King, the Most Pure, the Perfect Peace, the Trustworthy, the Safeguarder, the Almighty, the Compeller….”

(Surat al-Hashr, 23)

There are some arrogant people around. They think they are better than other people. They think that the qualities and abilities they have belong to them. Sometimes they even act arrogantly toward God.

But, this is very senseless. No one came into this world because they wanted to. And, they don’t know when their life will end. They did not choose any of the characteristics they have.

It is God Who has given us all the qualities and talents we have. Furthermore, He can take back what He has given any time He wills. God is magnificient and He does what He wills.
