Commentary
In this verse (‘Aayatul-Kusii),
there is narration about Oneness, Magnificence and Sole Command of Allah
Almighty that He has always been and always will be. He will never die, expire
or be perished. There is none worthy of worship but only He (God
Almighty). He is the Owner of such Virtues that praising any
other save Him is not reasonable. He is Creator, Lord and Master of the entire
creatures. He fulfills desires and necessities of all, and there is no partner
of Him in completion of all these works. He doesn’t need any supporter or
partner. He Alone manages these entire tasks and He is Well-Versed perfectly
over them. He is the Alive. All creatures are living with His Will. He is
the Eternal from always and will remain Eternal forever. He keeps others
established. He never feels fatigue. Despite so vast management of the entire
universe, neither He needs rest, nor does slumber overtake Him and nor sleep.
He remains Watchful and Sensible always.
His circle of
discretion is neither limited nor straitened, but It has circumscribed the
entire universe, earth and skies. All is for Him and He has Mastery and Power
of choice over everything. These all things have been fastened with His Command
and He brings them into motion as He desires.
Having so much
Powerful Mastery in Knowledge, Sole Command and Greatness, none can venture to
intercede before Allah Almighty save by His leave. Every individual is
responsible for own deeds, whether that is a mendicant, worldly person, rich or
poor, elder or younger will find fruit of own acts (good or bad) himself
(reward or punishment). Nobody would be able to share other’s load. However if
Allah Almighty gives permission to someone, then he can request in His Court.
He knows whatever is in any person’s mind. He is Aware of every mankind’s
intentions and wills. He keeps account of goodness and badness of the entire
creatures and it is very easy for Him.
None has power to
acquire some part out of His Knowledge without His permission. But how much
knowledge someone has attained, is result of Allah’s Mercy and Kindness. His
Throne of Knowledge and Sovereignty has besieged the entire universe.
Everything - large or small, good or bad, open or hidden; is bright before Him.
He doesn’t feel weariness from watching too much vast chain of creatures. This
entire arrangement is very light for Him. He is Pure from any kind of defect.
He is Master of the entire virtues and excellence. There is no limit of
His Dignity. Briefly speaking, the following virtues of God Almighty have
been mentioned in the ‘Aayat-ul-Kursii:
- The Alive.
- The Eternal.
- Neither slumber overtakes Him nor sleep.
- Everything is of Him and for Him
whatsoever is in the heavens or in the earth.
- Who is he that intercedes with Him save
by His leave?
- He knows that which is in front of them
and that which is behind them.
- They encompass nothing of His knowledge
save what He will.
- His Throne includes the heavens and the
earth, and He is never weary of preserving them.
- And He is the Sublime, the Tremendous.
