Tafseer Ibn Kathir

Everything that exists glorifies Allah and mentioning some of His Attributes

Allah states,

سَبَّحَ لِلَّهِ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالاَْرْضِ

وَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الْحَكِيمُ




Whatever is in the heavens and the earth glorifies Allah -- and He is the Almighty, All-Wise.

In this Ayah, Allah states that everything that exists in the heavens and earth praises and glorifies Him, including creatures and plants.

Allah said in another Ayah,

تُسَبِّحُ لَهُ السَّمَـوَتُ السَّبْعُ وَالاٌّرْضُ وَمَن فِيهِنَّ وَإِن مِّن شَىْءٍ إِلاَّ يُسَبِّحُ بِحَمْدَهِ وَلَـكِن لاَّ تَفْقَهُونَ تَسْبِيحَهُمْ إِنَّهُ كَانَ حَلِيمًا غَفُورًا

The seven heavens and the earth and all that is therein, glorify Him and there is not a thing but glorifies His praise. But you understand not their glorification. Truly, He is Ever Forbearing, Oft-Forgiving. (17;44)

And His saying;

وَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ
and He is the Almighty, meaning the One to Whom all things submit humility,

الْحَكِيمُ
All-Wise, in His creating, commanding and legislating
