Compilation 1 - Learning from the Quran: Allah

And We have sent down iron, wherein is great strength and many benefits for mankind, so that Allah may test who it is that will help Him and His Messengers, unseen. Certainly Allah is Most Strong, Almighty. Allah is the Creator, Maker, and Giver of Form, and He bears witness that He is the only God. He is the All-Merciful, Most-Merciful, the King, Most Pure, Perfect Peace, Trustworthy, Safeguarder, Almighty, Compeller, and Supremely Great. He has sealed up people's hearts, so they are unaware, and He regulates all affairs from heaven to earth.

He created all things and all might belongs to Him. Thus, Allah is the One, All-Knowing, and All-Wise, who is glorified in the heavens and on earth. He will have mercy on you if He wills, or He will punish you if He wills. We have not sent you to be a guardian over them. Allah is an all-powerful, almighty being who has created the heavens and all things in them.

He has given mankind the gift of iron to use and has promised to be victorious with his messengers. People should love Allah with their whole heart, and those who do not will face punishment. He has subjected the mountains to glorify Him and promised those who respond to their Lord the best. Allah has power over all things, and all things are subservient to Him.

He encompasses everything in His knowledge and determines the pre-ordained decree. The end result of all affairs is with Him and He does whatever He wills. He purifies those He wills and admits those who believe and do right actions into Heavens with rivers flowing under them. Allah knows us best and has mercy or punishes us according to His will. Allah has power over all things in the heavens and earth and is entitled to be feared and to forgive.

He has power to punish and guide whoever He wills, and to bring us all together. He is Almighty and All-Wise, and tests us with the things of this world as a test to know the truthful and fighters among us.
