Tafseer Ibn Kathir

Praising Allah and mentioning His Creation and Knowledge

Allah the Exalted said,

يُسَبِّحُ لِلَّهِ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الاَْرْضِ


Whatsoever is in the heavens and whatsoever is on the earth glorifies Allah.

This is the last Surah among Al-Musabbihat. We mentioned before that all creatures praise the glory of Allah, their Creator and Owner.

Allah said,

لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ


His is the dominion, and to Him belongs the praise,

meaning, He is the One Who has control over all creation, the One praised for all He created and decreed.

Allah's statement,

وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ



and He is Able to do all things.

means that whatever He wills occurs without resistance, and whatever He does not will, never occurs.

Allah said
