Al-Anam
(The Cattle)
This Sorah consists of 165 Ayahs, it was sent down in Makkah before the migration of Allah’s messenger, prayer and peace upon him, and it was sent in one piece.
It is reported in a number of Hadith that it was sent down accompanied by a large number of Angels. Allah’s messenger, prayer and peace upon him, said: “Sorat Al-Anam was sent down in one piece, and it was accompanied by 70 thousand angels, with their sounds heard hymning praising and glorifying God”. (Ibn Mardwiah)
Anam 1-3
1-PRAISE AND THANKS TO ALLAH WHO CREATED THE HEAVENS AND EARTH, AND MADE THE DARKNESS AND THE LIGHT, THEN THE DISBELIEVERS TAKE EQUALS WITH THEIR LORD
2-HE IS THE ONE WHO CREATED YOU FROM CLAY, AND DECREED A TERM, AND AN APPOINTED TERM WITH HIM, THEN YOU DOUBT
3-HE IS ALLAH IN THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH, HE KNOWS WHAT YOU KEEP FOR SECRETS AND WHAT YOU REVEAL, AND KNOWS ALL YOUR DEEDS
Allah the Highest is starting the Sorah by telling us that Praise and Thanks are due to him. The thanks are associated with praise. We thank Allah the Highest for all that is given to us, and praise him for He is worthy and for the magnitude and magnificence of his creation.
Allah the Highest is rebuking the disbelievers for taking equals with Allah the Highest who did not create any thing like Him. Allah the Highest sent us prophets, messengers and books, none of the others people claim to be gods, sent prophets, messengers or books.
Allah the Highest tells us that He created the heavens and earth and all there is in them, and no others claim that they created the heavens and earth and all there is in them.
Allah the Highest let there be Darkness and Light. Darkness is mentioned before the light. It is interesting that the universe is mainly dark and only the stars are light, but the vast majority of the universe is dark. How could those Allah the Highest created, respond to all this by worshiping statues and human beings.
“ONE WHO CREATED YOU FROM CLAY” Allah the Highest created us from clay. This is scientific; for we are consist of the elements present in earth, which form the clay. None of the other gods people worship claim that they created man or life on Earth.
Allah the Highest decrees a date for every being to die, which no one can change, and there is another date with Him for the whole creation, which is the Day of Resurrection. This date is only known to Allah the Highest and no one else, even prophets, messengers or angels. When Gabriel, peace upon him, went to Allah’s messenger, prayer and peace upon him, in the mosque in the form of a man he asked him about the Day of Resurrection, to which Allah’s messenger, prayer and peace upon him, answered: “He who is being asked does not know about it more than the one who asks”
“HE IS ALLAH IN THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH, HE KNOWS WHAT YOU KEEP FOR SECRETS AND WHAT YOU REVEAL, AND KNOWS ALL YOUR DEEDS”
Allah the Highest is not the God in one place, and not the other, He is the God, Lord and Creator of all the Heavens and Earth and all there is in it.
Allah the Highest knows every thing we do, and every thing that happened and happens and will happen in the Heavens and Earth He has total control over. Allah the Highest said: “THERE IS NOT AN ATOM IN THE EARTH OR HEAVENS THAT YOUR LORD IS UNAWARE OF”. (S: 10 A: 61)
This as well as knowing what we hide and what we reveal, even what we think to ourselves, Allah the Highest said about himself: “HE KNOWS YOUR SECRET GAZING OF THE EYE, AND WHAT YOUR CHESTS CONCEAL”. (S: 40 A: 19)
Such creation and knowledge was never claimed by a human being, even prophets and messengers, peace upon them all.
These are the characters of the God we should worship and obey, and we should not worship or obey any other.
