SUCH IS THE GOD WE HAVE PUT OUR FAITH IN!

We have put our faith in a God besides whom there is no power, refuge or authority. He is the Most Merciful, whose mercy encompasses the universe, the Compassionate, who protects the believers. The angels and those endowed with knowledge have also borne witness to His oneness. We fill our hearts with fear and love of Him alone. He is One; He has not been born, has not been begotten and has no equal. All praise and absolute sovereignty belong to Him, for in the end we shall be returned to Him alone.

Hearts Sealed with Truth

Allah, the God in whom we believe, sets a seal on the hearts of those who arrogantly deny the truth, and seals the ears and eyes of the heedless. Our God wipes out misguidance with a single touch and establishes the truth. He knows even the most secret whispers hidden deep within our hearts. We cannot will anything unless Allah, whose judgment and wisdom are infinite, wills it. If He does not will it, no one can find guidance, even if the whole world comes together.

The entire universe has bowed before His infinite majesty. Allah, who created the heavens and the earth in a way without equal, governs all affairs and sets them in perfect order. He has no partner in His dominion, and He has ordained everything He has created with precise measure. It is He who brought both us and the works of our hands into being.

Boundless Power and Justice

Our God is unshakeable in power and severe in punishment. He brings those who rebel against Him to an evil end, however powerful they may be. There is no power in the heavens or on earth that can render Him helpless. He sent His messengers with clear proofs, the Book and the balance so that humanity might uphold justice. He has decreed that His cause and His messengers shall prevail, for He alone is victorious.

All might and power belong to Allah alone. Whoever is in the heavens and on earth has submitted to His laws, willingly or unwillingly. There is no living creature on earth that He does not hold by the forelock and control. Even the mountains have bowed to His command and glorify Him evening and morning. Those who do not answer His call, however, will not escape His punishment even if they offer the whole world as ransom.

Infinite Nearness Beyond Space

It is He who placed the seas at our service so that we might benefit from them. East or west, wherever we turn, Allah Himself is there. Wherever we may be, Allah is with us. He has created everything in the universe according to His decree and has recorded everything that will happen in a clear book. When death comes, everyone is returned to Allah, their true Master; He is the swiftest in reckoning. Whoever sincerely submits to Him has grasped a firm handhold that can never break.

The unseen of the heavens and the earth belongs to Allah. Our Lord, who is aware of everything that is done, does whatever He wills. He rewards those who believe and do righteous deeds with gardens of Paradise and does not wrong anyone in the slightest. He alone commands the Hour of Judgment. When the time comes, He will gather us together wherever we may be. Whether we conceal what is within us or reveal it, He will call us to account.

Neither drowsiness nor sleep overtakes our God. No one can intercede before Him without His permission. If all the trees on earth were pens and the seas were ink, Allah’s words could never be exhausted by writing them down.

Worldly Adornments and the Test of Patience

He has made everything on earth an adornment to test humankind. He has told us that He will not leave us untested simply because we say, “We believe,” but will test whether we will be patient. This test will continue until those among us who strive and those who are patient are distinguished. No calamity befalls a servant without His permission. Everything that is done, small or great, is recorded in a clear book, and Allah is witness to it all.

He commands us to give what has been entrusted to us to its rightful recipients and to judge justly. Eyes cannot perceive Him, but He perceives all eyes. The keys to the unseen are in His hands. Not a single leaf falls on earth without His knowledge. When He decides that something should be, He merely says, “Be,” and it immediately comes into being. Whoever gives thanks or is ungrateful does so on their own account, for Allah has no need of anything.

A Challenge to the Nimrods of Our Time

What being on earth that claims divinity has power over all things as our God does? We challenge all false gods and the armies of Satan! Come on, if you have the power, rescue humanity from this mire of oppression into which you have dragged it! You tyrants who usurp the right to sovereignty, modern pharaohs of this age, Nimrods of our time… What quality of yours resembles our Lord’s? The palaces and systems you build cannot stand even as long as you live, whereas what our Lord has created will stand firm until the Day of Judgment.

The Greatest Happiness: Worshipping Him Alone

How peaceful and happy we are… We who accept Allah as the only God, who take His laws as the guiding principles of our lives and flee the yoke of false gods… How fortunate we are! For we do not bow before false powers; we seek help only from Allah and worship Him alone.
