لَمْ يَعْزُبْ عَنْهُ خَفِيَّاتُ غُيُوبِ الْهَوَاءِ وَ لَا غَوَامِضُ مَكْنُونِ ظُلَمِ الدُّجَى وَ لَا مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ الْعُلَى إِلَى الْأَرَضِينَ السُّفْلَى لِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ مِنْهَا حَافِظٌ وَ رَقِيبٌ وَ كُلُّ شَيْءٍ مِنْهَا بِشَيْءٍ مُحِيطٌ وَ الْمُحِيطُ بِمَا أَحَاطَ مِنْهَا الْوَاحِدُ الْأَحَدُ الصَّمَدُ الَّذِي لَا يُغَيِّرُهُ صُرُوفُ الْأَزْمَانِ وَ لَا يَتَكَأَّدُهُ صُنْعُ شَيْءٍ كَانَ إِنَّمَا قَالَ لِمَا شَاءَ كُنْ فَكَانَ ابْتَدَعَ مَا خَلَقَ بِلَا مِثَالٍ سَبَقَ وَ لَا تَعَبٍ وَ لَا نَصَبٍ وَ كُلُّ صَانِعِ شَيْءٍ فَمِنْ شَيْءٍ صَنَعَ وَ اللَّهُ لَا مِنْ شَيْءٍ صَنَعَ مَا خَلَقَ They do not escape from Him -azwj , the unseen secrets of the atmosphere, nor the inner-most mysteries of the dark obscurities, nor whatever is in the high skies to the lowest firmaments.
For everything from these is a Preserves and a Guard, and from everything from these is encompassed by a thing. And the encompassed is with what it has been encompassed with by the One, the First, the Samad , Whom the times do not change, nor did the Making of things overburden Him -azwj . But rather He -azwj Said to whatever He -azwj so Desired: “Be!”, so it came into being. He -azwj Initiated what He -azwj Created without a preceding example, nor exhaustion, nor toil.
And every maker makes something, so it is from something that he makes, and Allah -azwj Makes a thing, not from a thing.
فَسُبْحَانَ الَّذِي لَا يَئُودُهُ خَلْقُ مَا ابْتَدَأَ وَ لَا تَدْبِيرُ مَا بَرَأَ وَ لَا مِنْ عَجْزٍ وَ لَا مِنْ فَتْرَةٍ بِمَا خَلَقَ اكْتَفَى عَلِمَ مَا خَلَقَ وَ خَلَقَ مَا عَلِمَ لَا بِالتَّفْكِيرِ فِي عِلْمٍ حَادِثٍ أَصَابَ مَا خَلَقَ وَ لَا شُبْهَةٍ دَخَلَتْ عَلَيْهِ فِيمَا لَمْ يَخْلُقْ لَكِنْ قَضَاءٌ مُبْرَمٌ وَ عِلْمٌ مُحْكَمٌ وَ أَمْرٌ مُتْقَنٌ So, Glorious is the One -azwj Whom did not Tire, the Creation of what He -azwj Began, nor the Management what He -azwj Created, nor from frustration, nor from an interval.
He -azwj Suffices with whatever He -azwj Created, Knows what He -azwj Created and Creates what He -azwj Knows, not by the pondering regarding the newly occurred knowledge of what He -azwj Created, nor does doubt enter upon Him -azwj with regards to what He -azwj did not Create. But, (it is) an unchanging Judgment, and Wise Knowledge, and a Convincing Command (an extract).
