18 Preface عالِمُ الغَيبِ وَالشَّهادَةِ العَزيزُ الحَكيمُYusuf AliKnower of what is open, Exalted in Might, Full of Wisdom.1God’s Appreciation and Forbearing Kindness can reach so far beyond our merits, because (1) His universal knowledge comprehends hidden motives, which others cannot see in us; (2) His power is so great that He can afford to reward even the unworthy; and (3) His Wisdom is so great that He can turn even our weakness into our strength.
