P. 252
He gives wisdom to whoever He wills and he who has been given
wisdom has been given great good. But no one pays heed but
people of intelligence. (Qur'an, 2:269)
We made his kingdom strong and gave him wisdom and decisive
speech. (Qur'an, 38:20)
HE IS ABLE TO UNDERSTAND
THE QUR'AN PERFECTLY
Were it not for Allah's favour to you and His mercy, a group of
them would almost have managed to mislead you. But they
mislead no one but themselves and do not harm you in any way.
Allah has sent down the Book and Wisdom to you and taught you
what you did not know before. Allah's favour to you is indeed
immense. (Qur'an, 4:113)
We have sent down the Book to you with the truth so that you can
judge between people according to what Allah has shown to you.
But do not be an advocate for the treacherous. (Qur'an, 4:105)
Judge between them by what Allah has sent down and do not
follow their whims and desires. And beware of them lest they lure
you away from some of what Allah has sent down to you. If they
turn their backs, then know that Allah wants to afflict them with
some of their wrong actions. Many of mankind are deviators.
(Qur'an, 5:49)
ALLAH HAS FAVOURED HIM
WITH SUPERIORITY IN TERMS
OF PROPERTY AND EMINENCE
They will ask you about Dhu'l-Qarnayn. Say: 'I will tell you
something about him.' We gave him power and authority on the
earth and granted him a way to everything. (Qur'an, 18:83-84)
