Transcript

  1. 13:15 To God prostrates everyone in the heavens and the

    earth, willingly or unwillingly, and so do their shadows in the mornings and the evenings.
  2. 16:48 Have they not seen all the things created by

    God? Their shadows surround them right and left, in total submission to God, and willingly.
  3. 25:45 Have you not seen how your Lord designed the

    shadow? If He willed, He could have made it fixed, then we would have designed the sun accordingly.
  4. 13:31 Even if a Quran caused mountains to move, or

    the earth to tear asunder, or the dead to speak (they will not believe). God controls all things. Is it not time for the believers to give up and realize that if God willed, He could have guided all the people? The disbelievers will continue to suffer disasters, as a consequence of their own works, or have disasters strike close to them, until God's promise is fulfilled. God will never change the predetermined destiny.
  5. 13:2 God is the One who raised the heavens without

    pillars that you can see, then assumed all authority. He committed the sun and the moon, each running (in its orbit) for a predetermined period. He controls all things, and explains the revelations, that you may attain certainty about meeting your Lord.
  6. 24:35 God is the light of the heavens and the

    earth. The allegory of His light is that of a concave mirror behind a lamp that is placed inside a glass container. The glass container is like a bright, pearl-like star. The fuel thereof is supplied from a blessed oil-producing tree, that is neither eastern, nor western. Its oil is almost self-radiating; needs no fire to ignite it. Light upon light. God guides to His light whoever wills (to be guided). God thus cites the parables for the people. God is fully aware of all things.
