Signs in the Universe

By Sh Muhammad Al ‘Uthaimien - Imaam of Haram

Praise be to Allaah, the King, the very Truth that makes all things manifest. He manifested to His servants the signs with which they can draw lessons and guidance. I testify that there is no god but Allaah, with Whom there are no partners, the Lord of the first and the last. I testify that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger, who was sent as a mercy for Jinn and Mankind. May Allaah bless him, his family, Companions and those who follow them until the Day of Judgment!

O people! Fear Allaah and praise Him for the signs He has shown to you that which indicate His Oneness and His ultimate Lordship. In all surrounding things, we find evidence that Allaah is the sole God, Who is perfect in Knowledge, Power and Mercy. Among His signs is the creation of the heavens and the earth. Whoever looks at the sky with all its glory, perfection, altitude and firmness will come to realize Allaah’s limitless power.

Allaah, most Glorified is He, said which means: "Are you more difficult to create, or is the heaven that He constructed? He raised its height, and He has equally ordered it" (An-Naazi’aat: 27-28). He also says which means, "With power did We construct the heaven. Verily, We are Able to extend the vastness of space thereof." (Ath-Thaariyaat: 47). Also, "Who has created the seven heavens one above another, you can see no fault in the Creation of the Most Beneficent. Then look again: "Can you see any rifts? * Then look again and yet again, your sight will return to you in a state of humiliation and worn out." (Al-Mulk: 3-4). And He said which means, "Have they not looked at the heaven above them, how We have made it and adorned it, and there are no rifts in it?" (Qaaf: 6)

Whoever looks at the earth can see how Allaah has spread it out like a carpet and enabled us to go about therein by road and channels. He has set on the earth mountains standing firm and high above it, and bestowed blessings on them. He has measured therein all things to give His creatures nourishment in due proportion. He has made manageable for mankind to traverse through the tracts of the earth and enjoy of the sustenance that He furnishes. In this way, they can till the earth and plant in it. They can also extract water from it to irrigate land and use it for drinking. Allaah has made the earth a resting-place for creatures, so that it may not quake with them, except by His leave. Allaah said which means: "And on the earth are Signs for those who have Faith with certainty." (Ath-Thaariyaat: 20) and "And in the earth are neighboring tracts, and gardens of vines, and fields sown with corn, and palm trees, growing out two or three from a single stem root, or otherwise (one stem root for every palm), watered with the same water, yet some of them We make more excellent than others to eat. Verily, in these things, there are Ayaat (evidence) for the people who understand." (Ar-Ra’ad: 4).

These creations are diverse in their nature, characteristics and the benefits that people attain from them. There are gardens of vines and fields sown with corn, and palm trees, growing out of single roots, or otherwise; watered with the same water, yet some of them are made excellent than others to eat. Whoever ponders over this, will realize the extent of Allaah’s perfect Power and Mercy that He shows to His servants. read more

En tog lyk dit nie vir my asof die belangrikste van alle inligting, nie aan alle mense oorgedra word nie, en dit is: "Wat Moslems nou eintlik regtig glo." Die gevolg is dat die mense wat nie Moslems is nie, nie regtig weet wat Moslems glo nie en dat meeste van hulle nog nooit die Boodskap van Allah gehoor het nie... Kan dit waar wees...?"
