Transliteration:( Wa Huwal lazee fissamaaa'i ilaahunw wa fil ardi ilaah; wa Huwal Hakeemul 'Aleem )
"And it is He Who is worthy of worship for those in the heavens and worthy of worship for those on the earth [145], And He is the Most Wise, All-Knowing [146]."
This verse beautifully emphasizes that Allah alone is the One worthy of worship—not just on earth, but also in the heavens. Whether it be angels, humans, or jinn, every creation that worships does so only for Allah. The repetition of “worthy of worship” reinforces this truth with clarity, leaving no space for ambiguity or the attribution of divinity to anyone else.
This also refutes the false beliefs of polytheists who claimed angels or idols as divine. The verse makes clear: none is worthy except Him, above or below, and all creation stands in need of Him, not vice versa.
By declaring Allah as the Most Wise and All-Knowing, the verse reminds us that everything He creates is filled with purpose, even if human beings fail to understand it. What may seem harmful or difficult may actually carry benefits known only to Him.
Hence, no creation is devoid of wisdom, and even trials or disliked matters are not created in vain. His knowledge is perfect and all-encompassing, and His wisdom governs all events and creations in the universe, whether in the visible world or the unseen.
