Allah is knowledgeable about all actions of Allah’s servants. Allah is Hakeem (All-Wise) and Khabeer (All-Aware).
Tafsir
As we have explained in the previous verses, Allah (swt) is not separate from His creatures. He is aware of all their states, desires and wishes. In this respect, Allah is the One who is aware of the desires and needs of His creatures in the entire universe at once and fulfills their needs by creating causes for them. Since Allah (swt) encompasses the universe with His knowledge, He is aware of the states and movements, desires and wishes of His creatures by ruling over all beings with His knowledge and by programming all His creations to Himself. He is the owner of wisdom. Only Allah knows what He created His creations for and what mission He created them for, and He informs His servants as much as He wills.
What is said in the video
Surah Al-An'am, verse 18, the noble verse, has wrongly been explained, it seems; this part we have corrected. "He has every power of disposal over His servants," we had said. It said: "He has every power of disposal over His servants." So it says. No. Allah Almighty, over me, over people, does not have such power of disposal. If He had every power of disposal over me, He would have steered me. He would have taken away my will and exercised that will Himself. And I would be (?) from reward and sin.
When people have no knowledge of the Quran, how do they describe Allah Almighty? Was what people earn not the recompense of their own (?)?
Whereas Allah Almighty does not have every power of disposal over people. He is aware of every state of His servants.
He is aware of every state of His servants. Now how do the verses support each other? Rather, He does not have power of disposal over His servants. Because He gave our will to ourselves. Within our own will, by the judgements we have made, we earn reward and sin. So where is Allah Almighty's power of disposal over my own self here?
Quranic knowledge is not explained so haphazardly. Yes. He is aware of every state of the servants.
He is the Owner of judgement and wisdom. He is aware of everything. Owner of judgement and wisdom.
How is He the Owner of judgement? When He says "Be" to a thing, He creates it. His judgement. Yes. Wisdom: He knows why He created what He created.
Since He is aware of what He created, He is aware of everything. Allah Almighty. Now we read the verse: He is aware of every state of the servants. He is the Owner of judgement and wisdom. He is aware of everything.
Yes.
As we explained in the previous verses, Allah Almighty is not separate from what He created. He is aware of all their states, their wishes and desires. Therefore Allah, Allah is the One who, of all His creation in the whole universe, their wishes and needs, in an instant being aware, in an instant, within seconds, within our seconds, becomes aware of them. In all this universe. In all this universe. If it were not so, if He were not instantly aware of all in this universe, His creatures would suffer cruelty, cruelty. Cruelty. They would perish of hunger, groan with illness, their lifespans would be over and they would not die.
So that is why He is aware of every state.
Being aware in an instant of the wishes and needs of all His creatures in the universe, He is the One who meets their needs by creating means for them. Since Allah Almighty encompasses the universe with His knowledge, over all beings ruling with His knowledge, every being He created to Himself programming, in this way, of the states and movements, wishes and desires of the created He is aware. He is the Owner of wisdom. Why He created His creatures and for what duty He created them, only Allah knows, and as far as He wills, He lets His servants know even a little of it. Of what He lets His servants know: to people of karamat, the saints, some states He makes known.
Why does He make that known too? That too is His wisdom. Along with His wisdom, Allah Almighty says in the noble verse: To whom We give knowledge, We give wisdom. Yes.
