The explanation of the saying of the Exalted: En gezegend is Hij aan wie het koningschap van de hemelen en de aarde en wat ertussen is toebehoort; en bij Hem is de kennis van het Uur, en tot Hem worden jullie teruggebracht. (43:85)
The Exalted — praised be His mention — says: and blessed is He to whom belongs the dominion over the seven heavens and the earth, and over all things that are between them; over all of this His judgement holds sway, and in them His decree is carried out. He says: how then could anyone who is within His dominion and over whom His judgement is carried out be a partner unto Him? en bij Hem is de kennis van het Uur, He says: and with Him is the knowledge of the Hour in which the Resurrection commences, and in which the creatures are gathered from their graves for the place of the Reckoning.
His word: en tot Hem worden jullie teruggebracht, He says: and to Him, O mankind, you will be brought back after your death, and you will return to Him, whereupon He will requite the doer of good for his good deed and the doer of evil for his evil deed.
