Fatir 35:41 ۞ ان الله يمسك السماوات والارض ان تزولا ولين زالتا ان امسكهما من احد من بعده انه كان حليما غفورا ٤١

35:41
۞ إِنَّ
ٱللَّهَ
يُمۡسِكُ
ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ
وَٱلۡأَرۡضَ
أَن
تَزُولَاۚ
وَلَئِن
زَالَتَآ
إِنۡ
أَمۡسَكَهُمَا
مِنۡ
أَحَدٖ
مِّنۢ
بَعۡدِهِۦٓۚ
إِنَّهُۥ
كَانَ
حَلِيمًا
غَفُورٗا

Indeed, Allah ˹alone˺ keeps the heavens and the earth from falling apart. If they were to fall apart, none but Him could hold them up. He is truly Most Forbearing, All-Forgiving.

The Helplessness of the false gods and the Power of Allah

Allah tells His Messenger to say to the idolators:

أَرَءَيْتُمْ شُرَكَآءَكُمُ الَّذِينَ تَدْعُونَ مِن دُونِ اللَّهِ

(Have you considered your partners whom you call upon besides Allah) the idols and rivals.

أَرُونِى مَاذَا خَلَقُواْ مِنَ الاٌّرْض

Chapter 35, Page 439, Juz 22

38. Indeed, Allah is the Knower of the unseen of the heavens and the earth. He surely knows best what is ˹hidden˺ in the heart. 39. He is the One Who has placed you as successors on earth. So whoever disbelieves will bear ˹the burden of˺ their own disbelief. The disbelievers’ denial only increases them in contempt in the sight of their Lord, and it will only contribute to their loss. 40. Ask ˹them, O Prophet˺, “Have you considered your associate-gods which you invoke besides Allah? Show me what they have created on earth! Or do they have a share in ˹the creation of˺ the heavens? Or have We given the polytheists a Book, which serves as a clear proof for them? In fact, the wrongdoers promise each other nothing but delusion.” 41. Indeed, Allah ˹alone˺ keeps the heavens and the earth from falling apart. If they were to fall apart, none but Him could hold them up. He is truly Most Forbearing, All-Forgiving.
