Glorification Of God
English book, p. 15
By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan
Glorification of God meaningful the universe is, man cannot but make a profound acknowledgement of God. This is known as Hamd, or praise. When man thinks about himself, he finds that God has created him in the best of moulds. (95:4) Similarly, when he reflects on the creatures of God, he finds that everything is in the ultimate state of perfection. “God has ordered all things to perfection.” (27:88) Reflection on all these things produce vibrant praise for God within him. Man, with all his heart, soul and mind, starts acknowledging God. The Quran tells us, “He has given you all that you asked of Him.” (14:34) That is, God has given man everything he asked for. When you realize this it means that God gave to man all that he wanted, without his even asking for it. When man thinks of the innumerable blessings given by God, then he offers the utmost gratitude to God. It is Hamd or acknowledgment of this high order that will enable the believer to gain entry into Paradise.
