Say, ‘To whom belongs the earth and whosoever is therein, if you know?’
English - Five Volume Translation
Say, ‘To whom belongs the earth and whosoever is therein, if you know?’[2568]
Commentary:
With this verse the Surah reverts to the subject of the Unity of God and draws particular attention to God’s attributes of creation, Lordship and Sovereignty in support of this doctrine. It purports to say that when God alone is the Creator and Sustainer of the universe and to Him alone belongs the kingdom and sovereignty of the heavens and the earth it is foolish to associate anyone else with Him. This argument has been enlarged and developed in the following verses.
