Al-Qasas: (69) And your Lord knows what...

{What their breasts conceal} of enmity toward the Messenger of Allah and envy of him, {and what they declare} of their slanders against him and their saying: "Why was someone else not chosen over him for prophethood?"

{He is Allah}—He is the One who possesses exclusive divinity and is unique to it.

{There is no god but He}—a confirmation of that, like your saying: "The Kaaba is the Qibla; there is no Qibla but it."

If you ask: "Praise is manifest in this world, so what is the praise in the Hereafter?" I say: It is their saying: {Praise to Allah, who has removed from us [all] sorrow} (Fatir: 34), {Praise to Allah, who has fulfilled for us His promise} (Az-Zumar: 74), and {And it will be said, "Praise to Allah, Lord of the worlds"} (Az-Zumar: 75). The praising there is for the sake of pleasure, not obligation. In the Hadith: "They will be inspired to glorify and sanctify [Him]."

{And to Him is the judgment}—the decree between His servants.


{Say, "Have you considered: if Allah should make for you the night continuous until the Day of Resurrection, what deity other than Allah could bring you light? Then will you not hear?"

Say, "Have you considered: if Allah should make for you the day continuous until the Day of Resurrection, what deity other than Allah could bring you a night in which you may rest? Then will you not see?"

And out of His mercy, He made for you the night and the day that you may rest therein and [by day] seek from His bounty and [that] perhaps you will be grateful."}
