اقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ

Read! In the Name of your Lord, Who has created (all that exists), (Al-’Alaq 96:1)

The first command ever revealed was to “Read!”  1400+ years laters, here on this blog, and at this moment – you are being asked to continue the same command upon which the rest of this religion of Islam came.

And from the very first Ayah in this Surah Al-Alaq, we are reminded of our Lord and that it is He who created everything.

We previously had a post about praising and thanking Allah (swt).  All those blessings that you were, and are, grateful for all came from Allah (swt).  He created you, everything you know, and other things that are beyond the capacity of the human mind.

The Qur’an is the word of Allah (swt) and we ought to pay more attention to it.

Start today. Pick Up The Qur’an and Read
