Page 170 - Names of Allah

Prophet ‘Isa (as), He healed the blind and brought the dead to life. In
the time of Prophet Musa (as), He parted the sea and drowned
Pharaoh’s army. This is how Allah manifests His greatness and part
of His infinite power.
Allah openly reveals His greatness and power at every moment
and in every incident. At dawn, He sends a hurricane toward those
who greedily feel attached to this life of the world, or turns their
cities upside down and makes them uninhabitable. This way, He
strips them of their possessions and goods.
He submerges an entire city by pouring a heavy rain upon it, or
ruins it by sending a great earthquake. The skies and the ground,
the wind and the rain, all of which act under His surveillance, bring
an unseen destruction to that city, and its people witness Allah’s
overwhelming power. No doubt, Allah is al-Mutakabbir. In the face
of His power and strength, no one can become arrogant. He is the
sole authority before Whom all will prostrate.
