Commentary
It was described in the previous verse that
everything in the heavens and in the earth and whatsoever is among them;
belongs to Allah Almighty,
and He is Alone Owner of the entire things without any partner.
In the verse being discussed today, the same matter
has been commanded regarding the time that everything whatsoever exists in the
night or the day (any time) belongs to Allah Almighty. By amalgamating both verses, it meant that
everything with regard to any place and time (everything at every place and
every time) belongs to Allah Almighty.
That is to say; only He is the Possessor of entire things. There is neither any
partner of Him in proprietary of anything at any place and at any time, and nor
the claim of proprietary (of anything) by anyone is befitting. Neither anything
goes out from His Hold due to change of place, nor does any difference come in
His Proprietary and Ownership due to passage of time.
While Allah Almighty
is Master, Owner, Possessor and Lord of all things, then only He is Provider of
all creatures’ necessities, because it is the responsibility of the Owner to
look after the things, which are in His control. It is compulsory for Him to be
Aware of each condition of the entire.
It
is clear proclamation in the verse that certainly Allah Almighty is the Hearer of all creatures and the Knower of
the conditions of entire things completely. It has been explained in the Sayings
of the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) in this manner
that He listens also to the sound of an ant’s feet, which is creeping slowly on
a very smooth stone in any hole.
And
it is the state of His Knowledge that He knows the measurement of the entire
water of the oceans, weight of stones of the entire mountains, calculation of
drops of the rain and number of leafs of the entire trees everything
completely.
After
explaining this, Allah Almighty
addresses His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him): Ask
them! Can I choose any protecting friend other than such Lord, Who listens to
everyone and knows everything, Who created the heavens and the earth, Who
provides all necessities, food and provision to every creature?
Neither Allah Almighty
is needy of anything, nor anyone gives Him anything and nor anyone can give Him
anything. He is the only One Originator of the heavens and the earth, Who provides
food to His entire living creatures but is never fed by anyone.
