Surah Maryam – Verse 93
93. “There is none in the heavens and the earth but comes unto the Beneficent (Allah) as a servant.”
All the world of existence and its creatures are wholly under the command of Allah, and they are His servants. Why do you consider the servant of Allah as His child? It is for this reason that the Qur’an, concerning the matter, in this holy verse, says:
“There is none in the heavens and the earth but comes unto the Beneficent (Allah) as a servant.”
These servants obey Him, but in the meantime He does not need their obedience. It is those creatures who are totally in need of Him.
