We cannot compass anything of God's knowledge except as He Will.

We cannot compass anything of God's knowledge except as He Will. So to say; even the largest of the animals like the camel, cow, elephant, have been subdued to the vicegerent of Allah upon the earth and bow down to Man. The ships which are as big as the mountains sail on the oceans for the benefit of mankind by God's order and laws which man discovered and discovers by the guidance, and with the permission, of Allah.

Man uses the sun's energy, and the sky's rain to produce sustenance, and also the planets movements for his day work, and night sleep and repose. Even the gravity of the moon through the high tide and the low tide, is served in the man's irrigation and waterings. Man cannot even count and number the infinite bounties of Allah and yet through sincere and pure prayers he may have more, and whatever he asks for. (NO.34) ***** THE EARTH, INDEED, IS THE CENTER OF UNIVERSE!

PTOLEMY, the famous geographer and astronomer who flourished at Alexandria about A.D.130, taught that the earth was fixed and poised in the center of our solar system. His theory was accepted as absolute [ 380 ] truth in medieval times and dominated man's thinking until the days of Copernicus in the sixteenth century, when he maintained that the earth is not the center of our solar system, and that, all the planets revolve around the sun which is the center of the solar system.

I am of opinion that once again we must return back to PTOLEMY'S era, and this time accept that not only the earth is the center of our solar system, but that it is really the center and the capital of the whole universe for being the home and the station of MAN, and the CAPITAL CITY of GOD'S VICEGERENT. TRANSLATOR'S NOTE) WILL ALLAH GIVE US WHATEVER WE ASK HIM?

In the verse (NO.34) Allah has said:ِ ``And Allah, also, gives you OF all that you ask Him....'' Here the preposition, OF indicates some sort of a deprevation or separation, which implies that God will answer our prayers but not all of them. This is because many a time it happens that man prays to Allah to give him something which is not to his benefit, or may spoil or injure man's life or property or else; while he does not know, and Allah knows well the danger and loss!

In such cases Allah will not give His servant his harmful and injurious plea that unknowingly he prays for.
