ਅਲ-ਮੁਲਿਕ

This surah tells who is the royalty/actual ruler of the world.

˹He is the One˺ Who created death and life in order to test which of you is best in deeds. And He is the Almighty, All-Forgiving.

˹He is the One˺ Who created seven heavens, one above the other. You will never see any imperfection in the creation of the Most Compassionate.1 So look again: do you see any flaws?

Yea, turn thy vision [upon it] again and yet again: [and every time] thy vision will fall back upon thee, dazzled and truly defeated…

2 [Ego is destroyed by elegance]

[As against this,] behold, for those who stand in awe of God although He is beyond the reach of their perception, there is forgiveness in store and a great reward

12

📿

How could He not know His Own creation? For He ˹alone˺ is the Most Subtle, All-Aware.

14

Have they not seen the birds above them, spreading and folding their wings? None holds them up except the Most Compassionate. Indeed, He is All-Seeing of everything.

19

Who is ˹rightly˺ guided: the one who crawls facedown or the one who walks upright on the Straight Path?

22

Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “He is the One Who brought you into being and gave you hearing, sight, and intellect. ˹Yet˺ you hardly give any thanks.”

23 / Intelligence is a blessing

˹Also˺ say, “He is the One Who has dispersed you ˹all˺ over the earth, and to Him you will ˹all˺ be gathered.”

24

Say: "He is the Most Gracious: we have attained to faith in Him, and in Him have we placed our trust; and in time you will come to know which of us was lost in manifest error."

Say, “Have you considered? Were your water to vanish into the ground, then who would bring you flowing water?

29 / [God is the only ruler]
