Question: From the Quranic passages you have studied about Allah’s creation, outline the relationship between Allah to his creation/mankind? [10]And.. From the Quranic passages you have studied about relationship between Allah and His created world? [10]
Answer:According to the Quranic passages we have studied about Allah’s creation we came to understand and belief That Holy Quran is replete with descriptions of Allah’s relationship with His creation. First of all it teaches us about the status of Allah that is there is none to be worship except Allah as the Quran says: “Allah! There is no God but He” (2:255). It also teaches us that all the worshiping; praising is due only to Allah. He alone is the Sustainer and Him all creation will be brought back on the Day of Judgment. Many passages and verses of the Holy Quran endorse the dependence of mankind on the Lord of the Worlds, as in Surah An-Naas (114) Allah educates us mankind about the significance of seeking protection in Him from all evils of men and Satan. Man is utterly lost without his submission to One God. It is Allah who has provided for all the things that mankind needs to survive in this world, like all beings required day for working and night for rest, and the sun and the moon obeys His commands as Allah says: "The sun and the moon run on their fixed courses (exactly) calculated with measured out stages for each (for reckoning, etc.)" The most important theme is of about man and his learning and knowledge as seen in the very first revelation which was revealed to Holy Prophet (S.A.W) is about man and the knowledge taught to man by Allah (96:1-5), another Surah relating to man's knowledge given to man by Allah is Surah Qalam, " By the pen and that which they right........." (68:1).
The Quran also stresses on the need of developing and strengthening our relationship with Allah by identifying Him and then worshiping none except Him, as the Quran says: "O ye people! Adore your Guardian-Lord, Who created you and those who came before you, that you may have the chance to learn righteousness."(2:21) in the next verse of the same Surah Al Baqra Quran tells us how wonderfully Allah created the earth,neither too hard such that it cannot be utilized by man to extract benefits, nor too soft to make survival impossible(2:22).
This is the most important theme of the Holy Quran because it is intimately linked with the individual and collective salvation of man. Allah’s worship wards of any possibility of Shirk or to follow the path of wrong people and man seeking guidance from Allah as the Quran says in Surah Al-Fatihah (1:1-6). The Holy Quran also states: “O you who believe! Fear Allah as He should be feared and die not except in the state of Islam” (Ale Imran: 102).
The Quran categorically warns about bring the end to world by Allah as Allah says in Surah Zill Zal, that the wealth we strive to amass and which drive all our energies, motivation and efforts will yield us no pleasure or benefit on the doomsday when all will be rendered futile except our deeds (99:1-8). In section 30 of the Holy Quran has devoted several full Surah to this important theme that is Allah in his relation to his creation for example Surah Al-Inshiqaq, Surah Al-Takwir, Surah Al-Qariha all give the detailed description of Allah’s creation and the Qiyamah.
