From His wisdom, He gave the Sun ability to emit sunlight, whilst the Moon has moonlight. From His wisdom, He made the night dark, the day bright, made some rich, and others poor. From His wisdom, some are healthy, whilst others are unwell. From His wisdom, He lets one person live for a 100 years, whilst others die in the prime of their youth. From His wisdom, He gives sons to some, daughters to others, and sometimes, He does not give a person children at all.

Having recognition of this beautiful name of Allah means we say, “Whether I understand or not, every action of Allah contains countless wisdoms.”
