Ayat for the People
Then came
the third privilege; Al-Haqq (SWT) wanted to show man that there is a God
capable of everything, Allah who created man and everything in the universe for
serving man and who also created the universe. He made things that are stronger
than man millions of times and that no one can claim creating it, serve man.
For
example, the sun with all its strength and power, all people gathered cannot
claim that they made nor created it. It can burn the whole universe and man
doesn’t have any way to prevent its harm. But then Al-Haqq made the sun
provides us with all what we need and with His wisdom, knowledge and precision
in His creation prevented its harm from reaching us.
Another
example is the sea, it can drown the whole universe but Allah (SWT) made it
provide us with the different kinds of fish, food to eat, jewelry to wear as in
pearl and coral. He made it carry our ships from one country to another and prevented
its harm from reaching us.
A third
example is the earth that can shake powerfully and destroy man and all what he
has built, but Allah (SWT) submitted it and made it calm for us, to be able to
live on it.
And then Al-Haqq (Galla Gallaloh) gave
us the fourth privilege, our senses, the ears to hear, the eyes to see, the
tongue to talk and all the senses that makes us aware of our surroundings. And
Allah also gave us the mind that is capable of distinguishing. All those things
that serves us can not be created by man, and so man should know that there is
a tremendous power out there that had created that universe and its above all
our strength and power. Al-Haqq (Galla Gallaloh) says
<<And Allah has brought you out from the wombs of
your mothers while you know nothing. And He gave you hearing, sight and hearts
that you might give thanks (to Allah)>>
Ayah 78 from surat An-Nahl
All the
Ayat in His universe that shows that He (Galla Gallaloh) is the Creator
Al-Khaliq (The Creator), Al-Haqq (SWT) made them clear and obvious so that the
human brain does not get tired of searching for it or trying to reach it. He
(SWT) did not make His Ayat unknown or hidden nor did He make them hard to
reach but He (SWT) made everyone able to see and watch them easily with no
effort done. We see the sun, the moon, the stars, the plants, the earth and we
breathe the air. We see that Ayat Allah draws our attention as if it is
presenting itself and announcing its Creator with out any effort done from our
side.
Then
Al-Haqq (SWT) demanded from us to look at the universe to see those Signs -
Al-Ayat - so that we do not distract ourselves and get lost in searching for
His Ayat in the universe, and so that we do not forget the Creator and spend all
the time thinking about the creation. For the human brain in general with no required
knowledge can see and recognize those Ayat easily. In that way AlHaqq wanted to
make us busy with Him and with His love, without getting lost in ambiguous Ayat
in His universe.
