“Allah is the light of The Heavens and The Earth…”
The light is one of the Ninety nine beautiful names of Allah.
Imam Ali (as) said:
“Nothing I saw unless I saw Allah before it, and along with it .”
Concerning the pure Essence of Allah a famous Persian poet says:
When I look at desert,
I see you.
When I look at sea,
I see you.
Whatever I look at, mountain and plain,
I see a sign of your elegant stature.
“Allah is the light of The Heavens and The Earth.”
What a nice, interesting, and valuable sentence!
Yes! Allah is the light of The Heavens and The Earth. He is the brightness and illuminator of all of them.
In surah Al-ma’idah , no.5 ,verse 15 is recited :
“…. Indeed there has come to you light , from Allah , a light and a clear book. ”
We read in surah Al-baqarah , no. 2,verse 257:
” Allah is the guardian of those who have faith ; He brings them out of darkness into the light … ”
” Allah created his creation in darkness, ”
Said the prophet , may Allah’s blessings and peace be upon him, “then He sprayed them with his light.”
Islam is light, because it is his religion.
The prophet’s are light, because they are his messengers…
Let’s spread the light!
