"He it is who created for You All that is on earth. Then He Istawâ (rose over) towards the heaven and made them seven heavens and He is the All-Knower of everything." Al Quran, surah Al-baqarah verse 29.




-->"indeed Your Lord is Allâh, who created the heavens and the earth in six days, and Then He Istawâ (rose over) the Throne (really In a manner that suits his Majesty). He brings the night as a cover over the day, seeking it rapidly, and (He created) the sun, the moon, the stars subjected to his Command. surely, his is the creation and Commandment. blessed be Allâh, the Lord of the 'Alamîn (mankind, jinns and All that exists)!" Al Quran, surah Al-a'raf verse 54.



So, let us ask ourselves...do we really that great when compare to Allah?

Our so called megastructures are constructed on Allah's properties, use Allah's materials, designed using Allah's given knowledge and yet in our everyday life,we forgot to praise Allah, The Almighty...


" -->Then which of the favours of your Lord will ye deny?" Al Quran, surah Ar Rahman Verse 13

May Allah have mercy on us all....
