Balkh, and an emir in Samarqand—even though he himself is stationed in only one place and whatever lies beyond it is hidden from him. If this holds true for a human ruler, then how could anything be concealed from the Most High who is above all things and who directs every affair? He is God in both realms—for He manages them both—and He is upon His Throne, above everything, exalted far above any comparison. End of quote.
