Sermon (183): The strange creation of the locust
All praise and praise is due to Allah, Whom the senses cannot find, nor places can surround Him, nor veils can hide Him.. He is true in His promise and above oppressing His servants.. He obtains the evidence of His permanence (by reason) from the existence of things, from His constancy, from the signs of their weakness and weakness, from the reflexes of their destruction, from His power, He is One (Yagana) without being numbered or numbered.. He will remain forever without any (fixed) duration. And without the support of pillars (organs) it is established and sustained, the mind without senses and emotions accepts it, and the visible things without reaching it bear witness to its existence.. Intellects cannot cover its reality, but it has been revealed to the intellects through the intellects, and it refuses to be understood by the intellects itself, and has itself ruled over them in their matter.. He is not big in the sense that his boundaries and sides are extended. That which is magnified in the form of a statue and is not great in the sense that it is extended to extreme limits in size.. Rather, He is great in majesty and great in power and authority, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and His chosen Messenger, the beloved Trustee.. May God bestow His Mercy upon them upon their Ahlul-Bayt. Allah sent them with indisputable proofs, clear actions and guidance of the Way (Shariah).. So you sorted (truth from falsehood) and conveyed its message, showed the right path and made people follow it.. Signs of guidance and towers of light were established. Strengthened the ropes of Islam and the bonds of faith. One of the parts of this sermon is that in which strange offerings of different kinds of animals are mentioned. If people meditate on His great powers and exalted blessings, then they will turn back to the straight path and fear the punishment of Hellfire.. But the heart is sick and visions are lost. Do these people say to the small animals that he has created?. Do not see how their offerings have been strengthened and their joints have been joined together.. And for them the eye and the eye (holes) have been opened and the bone and the skin have been adjusted (in full accordance), just look at this ant in the light of its size and the subtlety of its shape and form, so small that it can hardly be seen from the corner of the eye, and it is not covered by worries.. See how it crawls on the earth and crawls towards its sustenance and carries the grain to its bill and stores it in its abode and stores it in summer for the winter season and in the time of strength and energy for the days of weakness and helplessness.. God Almighty does not neglect it and Sahib Atta Wajaza does not deprive it. Even if it is not inside a dry rock and a frozen rock, if you think about its alimentary canals and its high and low parts and in its shell the edges of the ribs that bend towards the stomach and in its head (in the structure of small eyes and ears), you will be surprised at its offering and you will have to be surprised to describe it.. Exalted is He Who made it stand on its feet and founded it on pillars (members).. No creator has participated in its creation, nor has any powerful person helped to create it.. If you reach the end of the path of thinking, then the guidance of the intellect will only lead you to the conclusion that the ant 1 is born.. He is the creator of the palm tree, because everything is detailed for delicacy and subtlety, and there is a subtle difference in the various parts of every living being. Among his creations, big and small, heavy and light, strong and weak, the things are the same, and the sky, atmosphere, air and water are equal. Behold the release of the heavens and the abundance of these mountains and these hills, and look at these blessings and the diversity of tongues.. Then there is the regret. As for those who deny the existence of the owner of judgment and the establishment of order and discipline, they have understood that they have grown by themselves like weeds, and there is no one to speak for them.. They have not based their claim on any evidence and have not researched what they have heard (just think about it) Does a building exist without a builder? And a crime without a criminal! If you want, say something about the locust (like an ant) 3. made a crack in it and made its sense strong and sharp and made two teeth with which it cuts (leaves) and two sickle-like feet with which it grasps (the grass), the cultivators harass it about their agriculture.. If they wind up their flocks, whenever the grasshopper's croaking is not enough for them.. He even barges in on their fields and indulges his desires.. Although his body is not equal to a thin finger. Pure is the One before whom whoever is in the heavens and the earth falls down in sajdah regardless of pleasure or compulsion, and for him the face and face are found on the dust, and there are tunnels before him due to weakness and disobedience.. And with fear and terror he hands over his reins to him. The birds are chained to His command, He knows the number of their wings and their breaths, and He has fixed (some of them) on the fly and (some of them) on the dry land, and He has determined their sustenance, and He covers their species and types, that is, the crow.. And this eagle, this dove and this ostrich, He called every bird by its name.. And He took charge of their sustenance and created heavy clouds from which they rained torrential rains and divided them among the different (heads of the land) and made the land fertile after it was dry and after it became barren it grew green..
