"For all fruit-bearing trees or flowering plants perform deeds, acts, and duties, and in whatever way they display the Divine Names and glorify God, they perform worship. All these deeds are written in their seeds together with their life histories, and emerge in another spring in another place. Just as they mention most eloquently the deeds of their mothers and stock through the tongues of the shapes and forms they display, so they publish the page..." içeriğiyle yeni sayfa oluşturdu

"For example, the phrase: When the pages are laid open(*<ref>*Qur’an, 81:10.</ref>) expresses the following: at the resurrection all the deeds of everyone will be published written on pages. Being very strange on its own, the mind cannot grasp this matter. But as the Sura indicates, the same way as in the resurrection of the spring are things similar to other points, the things similar to this laying open of the pages are quite clear." içeriğiyle yeni sayfa oluşturdu

"An example are the Suras which begin: When the Sun is folded up;(*<ref>*Sura 81, al-Takwir.</ref>) When the sky is cleft asunder;(*<ref>*Sura 82, al-Infitar.</ref>) When the sky is rent asunder.(*<ref>*Sura 84, al-Inshiqaq.</ref>) In these Suras it mentions the mighty revolutions and dominical acts of disposal in the resurrection and Great Gathering in such a way that, since man sees things similar to them in this world, for example, in the autum..." içeriğiyle yeni sayfa oluşturdu

"Who can give life to [dry] bones?,(*<ref>*Qur’an, 36:78.</ref>) and His power belittled. Then, with the phrase: So glory be unto Him in Whose hand is the dominion of all things,(*<ref>*Qur’an, 36:83.</ref>) it says: “He is an All-Powerful One of Glory in Whose hands are the reins of all things, with Him are the keys to all things; He alternates winter and summer as easily as turning the pages of a book, and opens and closes this world and the here..." içeriğiyle yeni sayfa oluşturdu

"It says: “The One Who will raise you to life at the resurrection is such that the whole universe is like a soldier under His orders.” It is utterly submissive before His command of “Be!,” and it is. It is as easy for Him to create the spring as to create a flower. He is One for Whose power it is as easy to create all animals as to create a fly.

"Also, could the One Who creates the heavens and the earth remain impotent before the life and death of man, the fruit of the heavens and the earth? Would the One Who administers the might y tree attach no importance to its fruit and allow others to claim it? Do you suppose that He would abandon the result of all the tree, thus making purposeless and vain the tree of creation, which together with all its parts is kneaded with wisdom?”" içeriğiyle yeni sayfa oluşturdu

"In this discussion of the resurrection of the dead, the Qur’an proves the resurrection in seven or eight different ways. Firstly it draws attention to the first creation, saying: “You see your creation from sperm to a blood-clot, from a blood-clot to a foetus lump, and from that to the human creation, so how is it that you deny the second creation, which is like it or even easier?”" içeriğiyle yeni sayfa oluşturdu

"It sometimes happens that in order to impel the heart to accept Almighty God’s wondrous works in the hereafter and make the mind affirm them, the Qur’an mentions His amazing works in this world by way of preparation, or it mentions the wondrous Divine works of the future and hereafter in such a way that we acquire firm conviction about them through similar things which we observe here." içeriğiyle yeni sayfa oluşturdu

"This verse explains the wondrous disposals in the formation of clouds and causing of rainfall, which is one of the most important miracles of dominicality and strangest veil of the treasury of mercy.

"Do you not see that God makes the clouds move gently, then joins them together, then makes them into a heap? – then will you see rain issue forth from their midst.

"By mentioning miracles of Divine power in a purposeful sequence, this verse ties causes to effects and with the words, For use and convenience to you points to an aim at its conclusion.

"Thus, it is within this long distance between cause and effect that the Divine Names each rise like stars. The place of their rising is this distance.

"It sometimes happens that in order to disallow apparent causes the ability to create and to demonstrate how far they are from this, a verse points out the aims and fruits of the effects so that it may be understood that causes are only an apparent veil.

"After enumerating these Divine bounties, with the summary: And He gives you of all that you ask for. But if you count the favours of God, never will you will be able to number them, it points out the vast extent of the bounties bestowed on man, and their abounding profusion and abundance.
