العقيدة

المعنى الاصطلاحي :


Beautiful creation that is made with utmost precision, perfection, and strength.

الشرح المختصر :


"Hubuk" (perfections): Allah, the Most High, created the Heavens in the most perfect fashion, just as He perfected the creation of the sun, the moon, and all other creations. Allah perfected the elements of the skies and described them with different attributes to serve great benefits. One of these attributes is that the Heavens are "dhāt hubuk" [Adh-Dhāriyāt: 7], meaning that they are perfect and beautiful and precise, as they have pathways for the movement of the celestial bodies. The Heavens are among the greatest cosmic signs of Allah, given their size, altitude, vastness, thickness, and colors. They are the domicile of His angels and the ceiling of the world that preserves its order and durability. These elements of perfection indicate the beauty of creation and the greatness of the Creator. They inspire us to contemplate the universe so as to strengthen our belief and certainty in Allah's existence.

التعريف اللغوي المختصر :
