ALLAH: Al-Mutakabbir, The Greatest
The Arabic noun At-Takabur (being sublime and supreme) therefore reflects divine perfection but human imperfection. It is because Allah is the creator of all worlds, in His Hand is the dominion of all things. If He desires a thing, His command is: “Be!” and it is. To Him all matters are returned for judgment and decision. His divine glory and might are Infinite. Both His divine perfection and knowledge are infinite. His divine power is also infinite: {Allah is He, than Whom there is no other god;- the Sovereign, the Holy One, the Source of Peace (and Perfection), the Guardian of Faith, the Preserver of Safety, the Exalted in Might, the Irresistible, the Supreme: Glory to Allah! (High is He) above the partners they attribute to Him.}(Al-Hashr 59; 23)
