WHATEVER
is in the heavens and in the earth has been made subservient
to man [22:65, 31:20, 45:13]. The sea [16:14], the ships that
sail in the sea [14:32, 22:65, 45:12]; the rivers [14:32];
the sun, the moon [7:54, 13:2, 14:33, 29:61, 31:29, 35:13,
39:5], and the stars [7:54, 16:12]; the day and the night
[14:33, 16:12]; and the animals [22:36] are just to name the
few things. All this subservience is according to the LAW
[i.e. Amr] of Allah [7:54, 14:32, 16:12, 22:66, 45:12] and
in all this are signs for those who THINK & REFLECT [45:13]
and who make use of their AQL [i.e. mind] [16:12]. The purpose
of all this is that man may thrive and flourish [la’allakum
tashkoroon] [16:14, 22:36, 45:12]. The nations who have THOUGHT,
REFLECTED and made use of AQL in doing research on what is
in the heavens and the earth are thriving and flourishing
but those who have neglected this, are poor and subservient
to those who did reflected and researched.
