Anam 17-21
17- IF ALLAH TOUCHES YOU WITH ANY HARM, NO ONE CAN REMOVE IT EXCEPT HIM, AND IF HE TOUCHES YOU WITH WHAT IS GOOD, INDEED HE HAS POWER OVER ALL THINGS.
H
18- AND HE IS THE OVERPOWERING OF HIS SLAVES, AND HE THE MOST WISE WHO KNOWS ALL THINGS.
19- SAY: “WHAT IS THE GREATEST WITNESS?” SAY: “ALLAH IS THE WITNESS BETWEEN ME AND YOU, AND HE REVEALED THIS QURAN TO ME TO WARN WITH IT AND HE TO WHOM THE MESSAGE IS DELIVERED TO, YOU TESTIFY THAT THERE ARE OTHER GODS WITH ALLAH? SAY: I DO NOT TESTIFY. SAY: HE IS BUT ONE GOD, AND I AM NOT GUILTY OF YOUR IDOLATRY”
20- THOSE WE HAVE GIVEN THE BOOK, THEY KNOW IT AS THEY KNOW THEIR CHILDREN, BUT THOSE WHO LOST THEMSELVES ARE THOSE WHO DO NOT BELIEVE.
21- AND WHO IS MORE UNJUST THAN HE WHO INVENTS LIES CONCERNING ALLAH, OR REJECTS HIS AYAHS AND SIGNS, AND THE UNJUST WILL NEVER SUCCEED.
Allah the Highest is telling us that He is the only one in control and command in the world and universe. Only Allah the Highest can give and take, can help and harm.
However, Allah’s giving is supported by His ability over everything. No one should think how could this happen, or that it is impossible for something to happen. This like, what happened with one of Allah’s prophets whom Allah the Highest mentioned in the Quran saying: “OR LIKE HIM WHO PASSED BY A TOWN WHEN IT WAS ALL RUINS. HE SAID: “HOW WOULD ALLAH REVIVE THIS AFTER ITS DEATH?” ALLAH PUT HIM TO DEATH FOR A HUNDRED YEARS THEN REVIVED HIM. HE SAID: “HOW LONG WERE YOU (DEAD)?” HE SAID: “A DAY OR PART OF A DAY”. HE (ALLAH) SAID: “BUT YOU WERE DEAD FOR A HUNDRED YEARS. LOOK AT YOUR FOOD AND DRINK, THEY DID NOT SHOW SIGNS OF TIME AND LOOK AT YOUR DONKEY, AND WE SHALL MAKE YOU A SIGN FOR MANKIND, AND LOOK AT THE BONES (OF THE DONKEY) AND HOW WE PUT THEM TOGETHER THEN COVER THEM WITH FLESH”. WHEN IT WAS ALL SHOWN CLEARLY TO HIM HE SAID: “I KNOW THAT ALLAH IS ABLE TO DO ALL THINGS”. (S:2 A:259)
On the other hand, Zakaria, peace upon him, asked Allah the Highest for what was not possible in human terms, but this is because he believed that nothing was impossible for Allah’s ability. “MENTION THE MERCY OF YOUR LORD TO HIS SLAVE ZAKARIA * AS HE CALLED UPON HIS LORD IN PRIVATE * HE SAID: MY LORD, MY BONES BECAME BRITTLE AND MY HEAD WHITE, BUT I WAS NEVER LET DOWN WHEN I CALLED UPON YOU * AND I FEAR FOR THOSE WHO FOLLOW ME, AND MY WIFE IS BARREN, SO GRANT ME A SON FROM YOU * TO INHERIT ME AND INHERIT THE FAMILY OF JACOB, AND LET HIM BE PLEASING MY LORD * O ZAKARIA, ALLAH GIVES YOU THE GOOD NEWS ABOUT YEHIA (FOR A SON) NO ONE HAS BEEN CALLED THIS NAME BEFORE”. (S:19 A:2-7)
Zakaria, peace upon him, knew that all his wife needed and he needed to father a child made it a physical impossibility, yet he asked Allah the Highest, because nothing is beyond Allah’s ability.
As we are part of Allah’s creation, Allah the Highest has unlimited power over us, however this power is tempered by Allah’s Wisdom and Knowledge of us. So that no one may fear to be unfairly treated, and no one may fear being misjudged because of lack of knowledge on the part of the Lord.
Allah the Highest is the Ultimate Witness, for He is a witness over what we do, and what we intend and feel, while human witness can only tell what they heard or saw.
This Quran is a warning to the disbeliever, and is also a warning and guide to those who carry it and deliver its message. It is a duty for the Muslim who knows any Ayah or Hadith, that they should deliver it to someone else. Allah’s messenger, prayer and peace upon him, said: “Tell others what Allah said, for he who knows an Ayah of Allah’s Book, he has received Allah’s Command”.
Many disbelievers or the people of the book say that it is part of their faith that there are other partners with God. They may take different forms, idols, son, angel, or a prophet. They testify to worshipping partners with Allah the Highest, as in the trinity, or the son of God. Muslims should never testify to that in any shape or form. Allah the Highest is the One and only, with no partners, sons or equals. This is the essence of our faith.
To disbelieve is to be a loser in this world and even more in the Hereafter, and it is to do ourselves the greatest injustice.
Allah the Highest said that those given the Book (The Quran) know it as they know their own children; meaning being familiar with it, and loving and protecting the book as they do their children. They know that this is their guidance and savior.
