‘Oh People! A parable is set forth, therefore listen to it; surely those whom you call upon besides Allah cannot create a fly; though they should all gather for it, and should the fly snatch away anything from them, they could not take it back from it; weak are the invoker and the invoked.’
(The Holy Qur’an 22:73)
‘Do you not see that Allah sends down water from the cloud so the earth becomes green? Surely Allah is Subtle, Aware*.’
(The Holy Qur’an 22:63)
—
*Al-Latif (The Subtle) – The One Who knows the subtle details of all things, and bestows blessings and gifts upon His creation in the most discrete ways, according to their needs.
*Al-Khabeer (The Aware) – The One Who can perceive all things, and is Aware of everything.
‘He sends down water from the cloud, then watercourses flow (with water) according to their measure, and the torrent bears along the swelling foam, and from what they melt in the fire for the sake of making ornaments or apparatus arises a scum like it; thus does Allah compare truth and falsehood; then as for the scum, it passes away as a worthless thing; and as for that which profits the people, it tarries in the earth; thus does Allah set forth parables.‘
(The Holy Qur’an 13:17)
‘And He it is who spread the earth and made in it firm mountains and rivers, and of all fruits He has made in it two kinds; He makes the night cover the day; most surely there are signs in this for a people who reflect.’
(The Holy Qur’an 13:3)
‘Allah is He who raised the heavens without any pillars that you see, and He is firm in power and He made the sun and the moon subservient (to you); each one pursues its course to an appointed time; He regulates the affair, making clear the signs that you may be certain of meeting your Lord.’
(The Holy Qur’an 13:21)
