Aya 12
12
اللَّهُ الَّذي خَلَقَ سَبعَ سَماواتٍ وَمِنَ الأَرضِ مِثلَهُنَّ يَتَنَزَّلُ الأَمرُ بَينَهُنَّ لِتَعلَموا أَنَّ اللَّهَ عَلىٰ كُلِّ شَيءٍ قَديرٌ وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ قَد أَحاطَ بِكُلِّ شَيءٍ عِلمًا

Muhammad Asad

GOD is He who has created seven heavens,1 and, like them, [the many aspects] of the earth. Through all of them flows down from on high, unceasingly, His [creative] will,2 so that you might come to know that God has the power to will anything, and that God encompasses all things with His knowledge.
  • See surah 1, note 20.
  • Lit., "the command". The verbal form yatanazzalu implies recurrence and continuity its combination with the noun al-amr reflects the concept of God's unceasing creative activity.
