Fiqh al-Adiyah wa-al-Adhkar - Abd al-Razzaq ibn Abd al-Muhsin al-Badr - (1/129)

“Allah is the One who created seven heavens, and of the earth the like of them. His command descends among them so that you may know that Allah has power over all things and that Allah encompasses all things in knowledge.” 1

And He Most High says: “Know that Allah is Almighty, All-Wise.” 2 He says: “And know that Allah has knowledge of all things.” 3 He says: “And know that Allah sees all that you do.” 4 He says: “And know that Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Forbearing.” 5 He says: “And know that Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing.” 6 He says: “And know that Allah is Self-Sufficient, Praiseworthy.” 7 He says: “Know that Allah is severe in punishment and that Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful.” 8 He says: “Know that Allah is your Protector—what an excellent Protector and what an excellent Helper!” 9 He says: “And know that Allah is with those who fear Him.” 10 He says: “And know that Allah knows what is within yourselves, so beware of Him.” 10 He says: “Know, then, that there is no deity except Allah.” 11 There are many verses conveying this meaning.
