Allah Is Everywhere

First, man’s knowledge is limited while Allah’s knowledge is unlimited and infinite. Let us contemplate these verses: “And if all the trees in the earth were pens, and the sea, with seven more seas to help it, (were ink), the words of Allah could not be exhausted. Allah is Mighty, Wise.” (Luqman: 27.)

“And with Him are the keys of the invisible. None but He knoweth them. And He knoweth what is in the land and the sea. Not a leaf falleth but He knoweth it, not a grain amid the darkness of the earth, naught of wet or dry but (it is noted) in a clear record.” (Al-An’am : 59).

“Lo! Allah! With Him is knowledge of the Hour. He sendeth down the rain, and knoweth that which is in the wombs. No soul knoweth what it will earn tomorrow, and no soul knoweth in what land it will die. Lo! Allah is Knower, Aware.”(Luqman: 34)

So, our human mind is limited and cannot know that which is beyond its scope, while Allah’s knowledge is infinite.

Second, Allah is the One and the Only in Heavens, earth, and everywhere that we may know and may not know.

“He it is Who created the heavens and the earth in six Days; then He mounted the Throne. He knoweth all that entereth the earth and all that emergeth therefrom and all that cometh down from the sky and all that ascendeth therein; and He is with you wheresoever ye may be. And Allah is Seer of what ye do.” (Al-Hadid: 4)

So, it is Allah who is the Creator of everything that we know about, and that which we don’t have knowledge of. This fact is proven—beyond any shadow of doubt—through the Qur’an and the universal signs.

Third, when dealing with the Unseen issues we should always seek guidance from the revelation, the Qur’an and the Sunnah, that is because our minds cannot comprehend the Unseen in its own.

Allah says, “And with Him are the keys of the invisible. None but He knoweth them. And He knoweth what is in the land and the sea. Not a leaf falleth but He knoweth it, not a grain amid the darkness of the earth, naught of wet or dry but (it is noted) in a clear record.” (Al-An’am : 59).
