that we will inevitably return to Him and be
asked about what we saw and experienced in this world
and about the proofs given to us. Allah created all of these
various details for a variety of purposes. Of course, He
could eliminate all of them and recreate them in even more
perfect states in the Hereafter. Allah is great, Almighty, and
Sublime. All things bow to Him. Everyone living today or who has
ever lived, including you, the reader of these lines, will one day be
raised to His Sight. Before that day comes, everyone must appre-
ciate the proofs of His existence. Allah’s art of detail is displayed
in a way designed to remind us of this fact:
Yes, everything in the heavens and Earth belongs to Allah.
Yes, Allah’s promise is true, but most of them do not know it.
He gives life and causes to die, and you will be returned to
Him. (Surah Yunus, 55-56)
Glory be to You. We have no knowledge except what You
have taught us. You are the All-Knowing, the All-Wise.
(Surat al-Baqarah, 32)
