             Himself in the Qur’an as "controlling hearing and sight" (Surah Yunus: 31)
             We cannot say one word, we cannot even take one breath without Allah's
             knowing it. Allah knows everything we do. This is revealed in the Qur’an:
                 Allah – Him from Whom nothing is hidden, either on Earth or in
                 heaven. (Surah Al ‘Imran: 5)
                 When people observe the copy world in their brains, imagining that
             they are dealing with the original matter, that is, as they lead their lives,
             the closest being to us is clearly Allah. The secret of the verse "We created
             man and We know what his own self whispers to him. We are nearer to
             him than his jugular vein" (Surah Qaf: 16) is hidden in this fact. Allah has
             encompassed man all around and is eternally near to him.
                 That Allah is eternally near to human beings is also revealed in this
             verse: "If My servants ask you about Me, I am near (to them)..." (Surat al-
             Baqara: 186) In another verse the same reality is expressed, "Surely your
             Lord encompasses mankind round about." (Surat al-Isra’: 60).
                 Many people continue to err by thinking that the nearest thing to
             themselves is themselves. However, Allah is closer to us even than we are
             to ourselves. Allah reveals this fact in these verses: "Why then, when
             death reaches his throat and you are at that moment looking on—and
             We are nearer him than you but you cannot see" (Surat al-Waqi‘a: 83-85).
             But as revealed in the verse, because people do not see it with their eyes,
             some of them are ignorant of this extraordinary reality.
                 Some people are unaware of this great fact. They accept that Allah
             created them, but think that the work they do belongs to them. However,
             every action performed by a human being is created with the permission
             of Allah. For example, a person who writes a book writes it with the
             permission of Allah; every sentence, every idea, and every paragraph is
             composed because Allah wills it. Allah reveals this very important
             principle in several verses; one of these verses is, "... Allah created both
             you and what you do?". (Surat as-Saffat: 96) In the verse "... when you
             threw; it was Allah Who threw... ," (Surat al-Anfal: 17) Allah reveals that
             everything we do is an act that belongs to Him.
                 A person may not want to concede this reality; but this changes
             nothing.
