Transliteration:( 'Aalimul ghaibi falaa yuzhiru alaa ghaibiheee 'ahada )
“He is the Knower of the unseen. He does not reveal His secrets to anyone.”
✅ The Secrets of the Unseen [42]
Allah (اللَّهُ ) alone knows the ग़ैब (unseen) — things hidden from creation.
He does not share His complete unseen knowledge with anyone, except when He wills to inform His chosen ones.
✅ Divine Attributes and Their Reflection
The creation is only a reflection of some Attributes of Allah (اللَّهُ ), not the source.
For example:
Life and existence are reflected in all creation 🌍.
Knowledge and rule are reflected in some chosen ones, like prophets and kings.
But eternity, being the Creator, and absolute independence are only for Allah (اللَّهُ ) — no one shares in these.
📌 Just as a mirror reflects the light of the sun, it never becomes the sun itself.
Likewise, even if a servant reflects divine qualities, he never becomes Allah (اللَّهُ ).
