The wisdom of God in creation

His Almighty also says
Therefore, 
disobeying such a holly, almighty, and all power God is a great issue, and 
violating the obligations towards Him is truly a great sin
Allah’s rights over His creatures are much more than what He 
orders them to do
Another fact which makes violating Allah’s orders a very great 
issue, and a great sin is that Allah’s rights over His creatures are much 
more than what He orders them to do. Allahis the creator of all creatures. 
He is The One who takes care of their affairs. He is The One who 
bestowed upon them the gift and the blessings of being at the beginning. 
Every other blessing later on is from Him, His Almighty. He is the One 
and Only who is all giving to all of His creatures. He is The One who 
nourishes and educates them with His mercy. They have no god but Him, 
and no creator but Him
Whatever Allah orders His creatures to perform is His own right 
upon His creatures; He creat ed them, and initiated their livings from 
nothing. Yet, Allah the Almighty does not order them to do but what can 
be done. He also orders His creatures to follow what is for their own 
benefit. Moreover, when Allah orders them, He does so while He is in no 
need for their worship. In fact, worshipping Him is one of the gifts He 
bestows upon His creatures, for it is the cause for their purging from their 
sins, and lifting them to a higher level. It is also a reason to bestow upon 
them His mercy, forgiveness, a nd reward. Consequently, the sin of the 
person who disobeys is of a very great magnitude. It is an overwhelming 
sin, since it is a revolt against The God who has given plenty, treated His 
creatures with the utmost generosity, created, bestowed upon His 
creatures, and who is the most merciful with His creatures

Islam is the only religion that Allah accepts from His creatures
The only religion that Allah accepts is Islam, which means a total, 
complete, and unconditional submission to Allah, by believing in Him 
and complying with His orders. Allah, His Almighty, says
Allah also says
Islam is the religion that Allah accepts for His creatures
It is the religion of the angels, and every 
obeying creature. Allah says
It is also the religion of the skies and the earth. Allah says
As for those creatures that do not willingly obey 
Him, then they obey Him forcibly
Denying Allah’s message and advice is a blasphemy, and refusing 
His orders is a blasphemy too
Whoever denies Allah’s messages, or any of the divine secrets that He 
has informed us of, then he has blasphemed. Also whoever rejects Allah’s 
orders and refuses to comply with them because of obstinacy or pride, 
then he has blasphemed also. The first sin that Satan committed against 
Allah was of the first type; he rejected an order, and a command. Allah, 
His Almighty has ordered him to prostrate to Adam, but he said
Satan, Allah’s curse be upon him, has 
not denied any of Allah’s divine secrets or His Almighty’s powers, his sin 
revolves around a refusal to obey an order from Allah, His Almighty due 
to arrogance and pride. Satan thought that such a command conflicts with 
reason, for how could it be that the better prostrates to a creature of a 


lower quality; after all, he was created from fire while Adam was created 
from earth. Satan's reasoning is very wicked and wrong. Theref ore, when 
Satan insisted on his decision, Allah, His Almighty, ordered him to leave 
Heaven, cursed him forever, and denied him His mercy. Satan's sin was a 
refusal to comply with a divine order; as a result he blasphemed, and was 
denied Allah's mercy
The second sin was committed by Adam when he, forgetfully and 
unintentionally, violated Allah’s order, as Allah The Almighty says
Furthermore, 
Adam did not insist on his violation or even tried to justify his actions, for 
he immediately apologized and offered his repentance to Allah, The 
Almighty. Allah, His Almighty describing the incident, says
When Adam and his wife admitted to their sin, repented instantly, and 
asked for mercy, Allah, His Almighty, accepted his apology and helped 
him follow the right path
Anyone investigating Adam’s guilt, finds out that it was a 
violation of a divine order only, for eating from a tree in heaven is not a 
sin by itself, has it not been a violation against Allah, the One who 
ordered Adam not to eat from that particular tree
Worshipping Allah and being devoted to Him means obeying His 
orders whether reasonable to us, human beings, or non-reasonable
Worshipping Allah is obeying His order, be it trivial orof a great 
importance, whether it makes sense to the human beings or not, for Allah, 
His Almighty, is aware of what He is allowing, and forbidding. In other 
words, a truly religiously devoted human being cannot be so devoted 
unless he obeys, non-negotiable, without hesitation, or reconsideration of 
his creator’s orders. A human being should not even consider posing 

questions such as: Why has He ordered me to do this? Why has He 
forbidden me from doing that? For if a creature follows only what his 
common sense allows, then his adherence is to his common sense and 

reasoning, not to his god, creator, and benefactor

A human being follows what his mind and his heart dictate upon 
him when deciding on the most intricate matters concerning his life and 
body, better yet, a human being could go the hardest way if his whims, or 
emotions drive him there. Therefore, if obeying Allah is controlled by the 
whims of the mind, the heart, or the emotions, then the ones that are truly 
worshipped are the mind, the heart, and the emotion, but not Allah His 
Almighty. That is not the case with true worship, for a true worshiper 
should obey his God against the whims of his mind, his heart, and his 

emotions
