Al-Baqarah (The Cow) Verses 26 to 27


Verse 26: This verse explicates that even a tiny creation of Allah Almighty embodies perfect balance and reflects the Creator's wisdom. A creation as small as a mosquito, or even smaller, is sufficient to reveal the truth to those who sincerely seek it. To grasp the depth of this example, one should study the design and function of a mosquito in detail. You will be truly amazed by the intricately detailed design of a mosquito, which is usually just 0.15 to 0.4 inches long. Furthermore, the design of entities smaller than a mosquito, discovered so far, also points to a wise Creator. Through scientific advancements, we have uncovered the world of micro-particles, invisible to the naked eye. The coherence and perfection of the micro-world continue to mesmerize the human mind. However, many people disregard these facts, believing these things exist without a Creator. These individuals do not submit to the Lord of all worlds, so they are misled by such examples and mock them. Consequently, they make poor decisions, leading to miserable lives. In the next verse, Allah Almighty describes the attributes of the defiantly disobedient.

 

Verse 27: Disobedient are those who break the covenant with their Lord, (i.e., to worship and obey Him in all aspects of life). They sever the ties that Allah has commanded to be maintained, such as those with family and friends, leading to imbalance and corruption on Earth. These individuals are the true losers, as they will face the consequences of their bad actions in the Hereafter.

Al-Fatiha (The Opening)

Al-Fatiha is a prayer that serves as the opening chapter of the Holy Quran, which translates as "The Opening." It is a preface to the Quran and is considered the most significant chapter. It is an essential component of Islamic worship and is recited numerous times daily. By reciting Al-Fatiha, a person seeks Allah's guidance and mercy to lead them on the right path. Allah, in turn, responds to this request by presenting the whole Quran, which is the literal word of Allah, as a guide for the person to follow in their daily life. Thus, Al Fatiha represents a fundamental aspect of Islamic belief and serves as a reminder of the importance of seeking Allah's guidance in all aspects of life. The chapter consists of seven verses, and it is believed that the entire Quran is summarized in this chapter. Every chapter in the Holy Quran begins with the phrase "Bismillah ir-Rahman ir-Rahim," which translates as: "In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the E...

Al-Baqarah (The Cow) Verses 21 to 22

  Verse 21: In this verse, Allah Almighty addresses humanity and asks to worship (enslavement i.e. obeying Allah in every aspect of life) their Lord who is the creator of all mankind. It also affirms that only Allah Almighty knows everything about humans because a creator knows every aspect of their creation. Obeying such a powerful Creator is the only way we can save ourselves from bad choices in this world and hope to have a successful afterlife. Verse 22: To elaborate on the previous verse, Allah Almighty brings our attention to immediately observable phenomena around us. Firstly, He discusses the stability of the earth and its suitability as a moderate place for life to exist, achievable only through the precise design of a powerful Creator.  The rain descends from the sky to bring the dead land to life causing crops, plants, and other vegetation to grow. These plants are our primary source of food, and their growth is not something we can achieve on our own; it is mad...

Al-Baqarah (The Cow) Verses 28 to 29

  Verse 28: This verse powerfully illustrates the stages of our existence governed by Allah. We began as lifeless, were given life by His will, and were placed in this world for a finite time as a test. Death will come, followed by resurrection, and we will return to Him for judgment. The inevitability of death manifests Allah's supreme authority, reminding us that no matter how much we try, we can never escape the end of worldly life. Therefore, Allah urges disbelievers to reflect on their helplessness before His omnipotence and abandon their ignorance of these profound truths. Verse 29: Allah Almighty draws our attention to the observable existence of the earth and the sky. However, He also hints toward the existence of seven heavens so that we do not confine His creation to the single visible sky due to our limited human understanding. Instead, we should recognize that His creation extends far beyond our imagination. Scholars hold differing views regarding the significance of ...
