They have a saying in english, ‘The devil is in the details’. Subhaanallah! No, rather it is Allah, The Subtle, All Aware that is in fact in the details.
As we go through our days, we are oblivious to how much Al-Lateef-ul-Khabeer is managing all of the background processes in our affairs. We are able to recall specific moments good and bad but fail to see the details that Allah is taking care of, especially when things don’t seem to be going our way.
As we sleep, away in the land of dreams, Al Lateef is still awake servicing the needs of our bodies, ensuring our batteries are being recharged as well as taking care of what lies ahead in the day. Unlike most manufacturers, there isn’t a single service plan for each of us, Our Khaaliq, Al-Khabeer, is aware of all of our unique needs and takes care of them for us. Imagine a being with intimate knowledge of the needs of billions of individuals. That is Allah!
Seems to be an impossible task, but if we stop and try to visualise any of these background processes that Allah is taking care of, we begin realise that Allah is The Subtle, Al-Lateef and what He does is based on His absolute knowledge of what is needed for us at all times.
