Allah The Exalted — Page 152
1 5 So that you recognize the God Almighty Who bears no resemblance to the world and all who dwell in it. So that it should be a criterion to judge the revelation from the Beloved; To enable you to recognize from among thousands, the ones that are from the Friend. So that all paths of imposture are blocked; So that light and darkness can be told apart. Then whatever the Lord God willed came to pass; And His handiwork bore witness to His Word. Idolators and all their pretence Are pierced by the sharp arrows of these witnesses. If you call someone else as Gracious God, The heaven and the earth will spit in your face. If you invent a son for Him Who is Unique, All high and low will curse you. This world is virtually proclaiming aloud: That God is Unique, All-Sustaining, and without partner. He has nor father nor son nor wife; He is Immutable since eternity. If the rain of His grace were to slow down for a moment, All this creation and the universe would come to nought. Take a close look at the laws of nature, So that you realize the greatness of the Lord of all the worlds. [ D i a -ul- H aqq, R uha n i Khaz a ’in, Vol. 9, pp. 251-252]
