Great Proof of the Absolute Power of Allah (Mighty & Majestic)
Great Proof of the Absolute Power of Allah (Mighty & Majestic)
& Therefore the Perfection and Completion of His Knowledge, His Ultimate Wisdom and His Supreme Attributes and Actions
Allah Almighty says in His Wise Book, the Holy Quran, when describing His Will and Ability, {Verily, His Command, when He intends a thing, is only that He says to it, "Be!"–and it is!}[Ya-Sin 36: 82]
In other words, if Allah (Glorious & Exalted) wants something, He merely gives the order. He does not need to repeat His Command or confirm it.
To Him (Glorious & Exalted) belong the keys to the heavens and the earth, to Him all things return, and to Him is the Power of creation and command.
The Verses that refer to the Power of Allah (Mighty & Majestic) and to its completeness are too many to count, as are His (Noble & Sublime) creation of the heavens and the earth, the universe and everything contained therein: galaxies, stars, and planets, among which is our earth.
Likewise, one of the greatest signs of the Power of Allah (Mighty & Majestic) and its absoluteness is the amazing balance and wonderful harmony of the universe and all it contains. Then there is also the proportion which is to an unimaginable degree.
Another of the great signs which indicate the Power of Allah (Mighty & Majestic) and its completeness is the creation of the human being, in which there are such great blessings they cannot be counted or enumerated…and so on.
Among the ways to demonstrate the greatness of Allah's Wisdom (Mighty & Majestic) and His Ability, which has recently been discovered by modern science, by the most advanced scientific instruments, is the balance and harmony that exists among the parts of the universe. Also, the make-up of human beings and other living creatures confirms the great Power of Allah (Noble & Sublime) and His Glorious Wisdom and Wondrous Design.
However, we would like to point out other perspectives and indications of the Absolute Power of Allah (Mighty & Majestic) and His Supreme Attributes and Actions. Among them are:
1. Man's Pure, Unspoiled Nature and Honest, Straightforward Reason
Allah (Mighty & Majestic) created mankind and designed him to believe in His Existence, His Great Power and His Beautiful Attributes.
Thus, we find that if man is faced with a calamity or disaster, he quickly turns to Allah Almighty in prayer, time and time again, knowing of the Existence of His Lord (Blessed & Exalted) and having faith in Him and His Great Ability, knowing that He (Glorious & Exalted) Alone is the All-Powerful, that He can remove all of the misfortune and disaster that has befallen him, due to His Absolute Power (Noble & Sublime) and His Great Mercy.
Man's honest, straightforward reason will not accept denial of the Existence of Allah Almighty, of His Supreme Attributes, or Absolute Power.
If man would only look at himself and contemplate the composition of his own body, especially after great scientific advances in medicine and in various other fields, with the development of scientific instruments to a great extent, he would know the Supreme Wisdom of Allah (Glorious & Exalted), His Absolute and Complete Power and His Wondrous and Amazing Design.
What if we looked at the human being and contemplated the vast universe created by Allah (Mighty & Majestic), from the heavens and the earths (since science has discovered that the earth is divided into seven layers), the galaxies, stars and living creatures (such as animals and birds), and other nonliving things without souls (such as trees and inanimate objects), especially after the advance of the telescope and the electron microscope, we would see with our own eyes the Great and Awesome Power of Allah (Glorious & Exalted).
As such, man's unspoiled good nature and straightforward, honest, superior, and rightly-guided logic is one of the great signs of the Power of Allah (Mighty & Majestic) and His Supreme Attributes and Acts.
