[Heba E. Husseyn]

"And they measure not the power of Allah its true measure .."  (6:91) Surah Al-Anam. 

I came across this Verse earlier today and immediately thought of this post.  None can be more articulate than Allah.  This is just so, so true.  The arrogance of disbelief just cannot assess the true power of Allah and thus the lowly creatures keep wandering blindly in their conceit and contumacy. 

Ya Allah, please never deprive us of one thing, Your Guidance.  Without that we are surely lost.  Our entire earthly life becomes purposeless; and such folks go to the next world empty handed.  The ultimate loss!

Lovely, lovely Verse.  Subhan'Allah.  Another similar Verse just as breathtaking ..

"And they esteem not Allah as He hath the right to be esteemed, when the whole earth is His handful on the Day of Resurrection, and the heavens are rolled in His right hand. Glorified is He and High Exalted from all that they ascribe as partner (unto Him)."   39:67  Az-Zumar.


The beautiful style of the Great Quran mentioning future events as already happened, because for Allah Almighty, there is no such thing as future.  He knows the future, every bit of the future is known to Him.

This reminds me, also it's vital to keep in mind never to view The Almighty from the same perspective as humans.  This is a huge mistake which a lot of humans make because of their limited perception every now and again.  When Verse 39:67 mentions about the heavens rolled up in "His right hand" does not mean that Allah has hands like humans.  AstaghfarAllah. These Verses elucidate the Supreme Power and Power of Limitless Miracles  of The Almighty that is much too vast for us to even imagine ("Kun Faya Kun").  This entire planet and all of us in it are just a handful for Him, exactly the way a little blueberry would be in the palm of our hand.



If you are afraid of another human being, you will want to stay far away from them.  But if you are afraid of Allah, you will love Him still more and want to get closer to Him.  If someone says that you are a slave of another human being, you will feel humiliated.   But if you are a slave of Allah, you will feel exhilarated and proud of yourself.  If a human leader makes all his decisions himself without consultation with other humans, you won't like him.  But when Allah asserts that He makes none to share His government, it elevates His Glory still higher and enhances the Beauty of His omnipotence and benevolence.   Therefore, NEVER EVER think of Allah from the same perspective as human beings.  That would be a tremendous blunder.
