ALL THINGS ARE SUBSERVIENT TO HIM
Is it other than the religion of Allah that you desire, when
everything in the heavens and earth, willingly or unwillingly,
submits to Him and to Him you will be returned? (Qur'an, 3:83)
"I have put my trust in Allah, my Lord and your Lord. There is no
creature He does not hold by the forelock. My Lord is on a Straight
Path." (Qur'an, 11:56)
We subjected the mountains to glorify with him in the evening
and at sunrise. (Qur'an, 38:18)
Those who respond to their Lord will receive the best. But as for
those who do not respond to Him, even if they owned everything
on the earth and the same again with it, they would offer it as a
ransom. They will receive an evil Reckoning. Their shelter will be
Hell. What an evil resting-place! (Qur'an, 13:18)
So that you might sit firmly on their backs and remember your
Lord's blessing while you are seated on them, saying, 'Glory be to
Him Who has subjected this to us. We could never have done it by
ourselves. (Qur'an, 43:13)
It is Allah Who has made the sea subservient to you so that the
ships sail on it at His command, enabling you to seek His bounty,
so that hopefully you will be thankful. (Qur'an, 45:12)
HE ENCOMPASSES ALL THINGS
Both East and West belong to Allah, so wherever you turn, the
Face of Allah is there. Allah is All-Encompassing, All-Knowing.
(Qur'an, 2:115)
What is in the heavens and in the earth belongs to Allah. Allah
encompasses all things. (Qur'an, 4:126)
They try to conceal themselves from people, but they cannot
conceal themselves from Allah. He is with them when they spend
the night saying things which are not pleasing to Him. Allah
encompasses everything they do. (Qur'an, 4:108)
