LOGICAL, SOLE AUTHORITY CONTROLS THE UNIVERSE (P-4)

“Say (to these polytheists, pagans, etc.): "If there had been other aliha (gods) along with Him as they assert, then they would certainly have sought out a way to the Lord of the Throne (seeking His Pleasures and to be near to Him)”. (V-17:42 )
Time and tide waits for nobody, and people die in illusions and false assumptions. So, we must start right now with an inner realistic revolution: maybe the time of death is at hand, as millions of settled people and nations are wasting away each day, even without time for a will for their descendants. Instead of conquering the world as an aggressor, one must resolve inner fight and impulses by conquering the depressed people’s psyche (RUH) with love, caring and sharing the resources and power as social human beings.
Fact are narrated with logic to reconsider the sole authority of Allah as Creator, Provider, etc., of the entire universe, in V-27:60-62,” Is not He (better than your gods) Who created the heavens and the earth, and sends down for you water (rain) from the sky, whereby We cause to grow wonderful gardens full of beauty and delight? It is not in your ability to cause the growth of their trees. Is there any ilah (god) with Allah? Nay, but they are a people who ascribe equals (to Him)! Is not He (better than your gods) Who has made the earth as a fixed abode, and has placed rivers in its midst, and has placed firm mountains therein, and has set a barrier between the two seas (of salt and sweet water).Is there any ilah (god) with Allah? Nay, but most of them know not. Is not He (better than your gods) Who responds to the distressed one, when he calls Him, and Who removes the evil, and makes you inheritors of the earth, generations after generations. Is there any ilah (god) with Allah? Little is that you remember!”
Historically proved that He crushed those nations that revolted against the Master, as described in V-6:133-134,”And your Lord is Rich (Free of all wants), full of Mercy, if He will, He can destroy you, and in your place make whom He will as your successors, as He raised you from the seed of other people. Surely, that which you are promised will verily come to pass, and you cannot escape (from the Punishment of Allah).”
Human beings, in the process to create their own artificial paradise due to His given wisdom and knowledge of exploration, are now trying to replace natural system with artificial chemicals in production in foods, fruits, drinks, and excessive use of medication to build a system which ends in after-effects and an abnormal life, children, and mental diseases. The more mankind advances to control the natural ingredients, the more complicated diseases and viruses are emerging within the existing system. So, he is trapped in his own net of superiority. Example are quoted that stay in the world, along with wealth and children, is short and illusory in nature, in V-18:45-46,”And put forward to them the example of the life of this world, it is like the water (rain) which We send down from the sky, and the vegetation of the earth mingles with it, and becomes fresh and green. But (later) it becomes dry and broken pieces, which the winds scatter. And Allah is Able to do everything. Wealth and children are the adornment of the life of this world. But the good righteous deeds (five compulsory prayers, deeds of Allah's obedience, good and nice talk, remembrance of Allah with glorification, praises and thanks, etc.), that last, are better with your Lord for rewards and better in respect of hope.”
All universal system runs at the will of Allah and He may like to punish the wrong-doers at any moment and no one can stop His plans, revealed for insight in V-29:21-22,” He brings out the living from the dead, and brings out the dead from the living. And He revives the earth after its death. And thus shall you be brought out (resurrected). And among His Signs is this, that He created you (Adam) from dust, and then [Hawwa' (Eve) from Adam's rib, and then his offspring from the semen, and], - behold you are human beings scattered! And among His Signs is this, that He created for you wives from among yourselves, that you may find repose in them, and He has put between you affection and mercy. Verily, in that are indeed signs for a people who reflect. And among His Signs is the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the difference of your languages and colors. Verily, in that are indeed signs for men of sound knowledge.”
Human beings are so weak before the law of nature as their residences are as weak as the web of spiders, mentioned for self-correction in V-29:40-42,” So We punished each (of them) for his sins, of them were some on whom We sent Hasiban (a violent wind with shower of stones) [as the people of Lout (Lot)], and of them were some who were overtaken by As-Saihah [torment - awful cry, etc. (as Thamud or Shu'aib's people)], and of them were some whom We caused the earth to swallow [as Qarun (Korah)], and of them were some whom We drowned [as the people of Nuh (Noah), or Fir'aun (Pharaoh) and his people]. It was not Allah Who wronged them, but they wronged themselves. The likeness of those who take Auliya' (protectors and helpers) other than Allah is as the likeness of a spider, who builds (for itself) a house, but verily, the frailest (weakest) of houses is the spider's house; if they but knew. Verily, Allah knows what things they invoke instead of Him. He is the All-Mighty, the All-Wise”
So, human beings are warned to prepare the self, in the race of worldly fun and pleasure, for the final strict accountability on Qimat day, this is revealed about human deeds for insight in Surah Al-Haq, V-69:13-18," Then when the Trumpet will be blown with one blowing (the first one), And the earth and the mountains shall be removed from their places, and crushed with a single crushing, Then on that Day shall the (Great) Event befall, And the heaven will split asunder, for that Day it (the heaven will be frail (weak), and torn up, And the angels will be on its sides, and eight angels will, that Day, bear the Throne of your Lord above them. That Day shall you be brought to Judgement, not a secret of you will be hidden.”
Death is an established reality but it is up to an individual how much he has gained in life to meet the purpose of his creation and its accountability process as even an animal too passes its life. So, there is warning to reset the priorities of life to pass the final test with a good result like a committed, intelligent serious student. It is cautioned to all super powers, monarchs, and ruling authorities that state and power will not help them and all will be left in this world; it is warned for correction in V-69: 26-31,”And that I had never known, how my Account is? "I wish, would that it had been my end (death)!"My wealth has not availed me, "My power and arguments (to defend myself) have gone from me!" (It will be said): "Seize him and fetter him, Then throw him in the blazing Fire.”
