The Greatest Verse In The Holy Quran!
Allah! There is no god ˹worthy of worship˺ except Him, the Ever-Living, All-Sustaining. Neither drowsiness nor sleep overtakes Him. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who could possibly intercede with Him without His permission? He ˹fully˺ knows what is ahead of them and what is behind them, but no one can grasp any of His knowledge—except what He wills ˹to reveal˺. His Seat encompasses the heavens and the earth, and the preservation of both does not tire Him. For He is the Most High, the Greatest.
In a captivating video, Ustad Nouman Ali Khan delves into the profound meaning of Ayat al-Kursi, a verse that stands as the greatest verse in the Holy Quran.
Allah's Messenger (SAW) said: O Abu' al-Mundhir, do you know the verse from the Book of Allah which, according to you, is the greatest? I said: Allah and His Apostle (SAW) know best. He again said: Abu'l-Mundhir, do you know the verse from the Book of Allah which, according to you, is the greatest? I said: Allah, there is no god but He, the Living, the Eternal. Thereupon he struck me on my breast and said: May knowledge be pleasant for you, O Abu'l-Mundhir!
With a unique blend of insight and light-heartedness, Ustad Nouman Ali Khan unveils the importance of this verse, unravelling the numerous gems embedded within it. His approach ensures that people from all walks of life can readily connect with the depth of its message.
Ayat al-Kursi serves as a powerful reminder of Allah's greatness, showcasing His glorious characteristics and infinite authority. At its core, the verse emphasizes the concept of ownership – every entity, every facet of existence belongs to Allah.
The expansive throne of Allah, representing His kingdom and authority, extends over the entire cosmos – both the heavens and the earth. This profound truth underscores the divine ownership that permeates every corner of the universe.
In a world where authority often seems fragmented, Ayat al-Kursi reinforces the ultimate truth that no one possesses authority unless it is bestowed upon them by Allah. It's a humbling reminder that all power and control ultimately rest in His hands.
Furthermore, the verse highlights the divine distribution of knowledge. True knowledge is a gift from Allah, granted to those whom He chooses. It emphasizes that human understanding is limited, and the pursuit of knowledge is guided by Allah's divine will.
As Ustad Nouman Ali Khan beautifully articulates the significance of Ayat al-Kursi, we are reminded that Allah's knowledge transcends time. He knows what lies ahead and what is behind, providing us with comfort and reassurance as we navigate the journey of life.
For a more in-depth exploration of Ayat al-Kursi, watch Ustad Nouman Ali Khan's insightful video linked at the end of this article. May this profound verse continue to illuminate our hearts and minds, bringing us closer to the boundless wisdom of the Holy Quran.
