وَمَا خَلَقْنَا ٱلسَّمَآءَ وَٱلْأَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا لَـٰعِبِينَ ١٦
And We did not create the heaven and earth and that between them in play.
وَمَا خَلَقْنَا ٱلسَّمَآءَ وَٱلْأَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا لَـٰعِبِينَ ١٦
And We did not create the heaven and earth and that between them in play.
Creation was made with Justice and Wisdom Allah tells:وَمَا خَلَقْنَا السَّمَاء وَالاَْرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا لَاعِبِينَWe created not the heavens and the earth and all that is between them for play. Allah tells us that He created the heavens and the earth in truth, i.e. with justice.لِيَجْزِىَ الَّذِينَ أَسَاءُواْ بِمَا عَمِلُواْ وَيِجْزِى الَّذِينَ أَحْسَنُواْ بِالْحُسْنَىthat He may requite those who do evil with that which they have done, and reward those who do good, with what is best. (53:31)He did not create all that in vain or for (mere) play:وَمَا خَلَقْنَا السَّمَأءَ وَالاٌّرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا بَـطِلً ذَلِكَ ظَنُّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ فَوَيْلٌ لِّلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ مِنَ النَّارِAnd We created not the heaven and the earth and all that is between them without purpose! That is the consideration of those who disbelieve! Then woe to those who disbelieve from the Fire! (38:27) لَوْ أَرَدْنَا أَن نَّتَّخِذَ لَهْوًا لاَّتَّخَذْنَاهُ مِن لَّدُنَّا إِن كُنَّا فَاعِلِينَ
