It means that Allah is far exalted that He should have a fault or defect or demerit. Apart from this, wherever it is claimed to be, whether in the person of a king or dictator, or in a class or group or family, or in some nation, he or it possesses no sovereignty at all, for sovereignty is not a gift, which may at one time be granted and at another time withdrawn, which may be in danger of being usurped, the establishment and existence of which may be temporary and temporal, and the sphere of power and authority of which may be circumscribed and restricted by many other conflicting powers.ģ7. As a matter of fact, if sovereignty in its true sense is at all found somewhere, it is found only in Allah’s Kingship. These explanations make it abundantly clear that Allah is not King in some limited or metaphoric sense but He is real King in the most perfect and complete sense of sovereignty.
SURAH HASHR LAST 3 AYATS FULL
All that is good is in Your power indeed You have full power over all things. You exalt whomever You will and You abase whomever You will. Say: O Allah, Sovereign of the Kingdom, You bestow kingdom on whomever You will, and You take it away from whomever You will. The Being Who gives protection while none can give protection against Him. (Surah Al-Anbiyia, Ayat 23).Īllah rules and there is none to reverse His decrees. He is accountable to none for what He does, but all others are accountable (to Him). (Surah Ya Seen, Ayat 83).ĭoer of whatever He wills. In His hand is the absolute control of everything. To Him belongs the dominion of the earth and the heavens, and all matters are referred to Him for decision.( Surah Al- Hadid, Ayat 5). He administers the affairs of the world from the heavens to the earth. At different places in the Quran all aspects of Allah’s Sovereignty have been presented and explained fully.Īnd whoever exists in the heavens and the earth, belongs to Him. Everything submits itself to His command and power and authority, and there is nothing to delimit His Sovereignty. His Sovereignty and rule comprehends the entire universe. Moreover, the word al- Malik in its general sense also gives the meaning that He is King of the entire universe and not of a particular region or of a specific country. The word used in the original is al-Malik, which means that He alone is the real Sovereign. Exalted be He from whatever they associate with Him.ģ6. (59:23) He is Allah: there is no god but He: the King, the Holy, the All-Peace, the Giver of security, the Overseer, the Most Mighty, the Overpowering, the All-Great.
