Allah has commanded the Sun, the Moon, and every law of nature to serve humanity. In this book, we have touched on a few of the innumerable blessings of Allah that, out of His generosity, He bestowed upon human beings. All of these miraculous events surround us on every side. All of the complex systems in the heavens, on Earth, and in between function perfectly and without interruption – and all created to serve us.
However, we occupy a place the size of a dot in this vast universe. But, in his generosity, Allah values us and tells all of these good blessings to serve us. He created countless blessings to protect us from every hardship, anxiety, and trouble, to make our lives easy, and to appeal to our pleasure. In this way, He has opened the gates of His mercy to human beings, all of whom are protected by His kindness. In return, we are responsible for giving constant thanks to Allah for every good thing and blessing.
O humanity! Remember Allah's blessing to you. Is there any creator other than Allah providing for you from heaven and Earth? There is no deity but Him. So how have you been led astray?
(Surah Fatir, 3)
When believers understand His greatness and mercy toward them, they exalt Him all the time. In return for these blessings, His servants are expected to remember these blessings and praise Him:
Those who have been given knowledge see that what has been sent down to you from your Lord is the truth and that it guides to the Path of the Almighty, the Praiseworthy. (Surah Saba, 6)
