SIX: In the noble Qur'an, it is mentioned that God created the heavens and the earth in six days (10:3; 11:7)It should be known that this ordinance is specifically related to the world of religion and the personal world, that six Natiqs including their cycles are the six days of the world of religion and in the personal world there are six stages of spirituality as their examples, so that man may recognise God and His great Prophets in his personal world. There are six stages of the creation of the human body: quintessence, sperm, clot, lump of flesh, bones, flesh and in another creation is mentioned the perfection of spirituality. There are also six shariats and six sides or direction.

Q175 Once explaining “yudabbiru’l-amra” (10:3), you stated that God continues to repeat the Word of Command (Be), because He maintains the chain of creation by this command. Is this correct?

A175 Yes, it is correct and it is because of this that God says in verse (33:37): “And Allah’s command is that which has been accomplished [several times].” Thus, there is no work with God that has never been accomplished, but there is renewal in everything, which is a new creation (khalq-i jadid). See verses (13:5; 14:19; 17:49, 98; 32:10; 34:7; 35:16; 50:15).

Q474 According to the Arabic language, the word “amr” has two meanings, command and work. Thus, in verse (10:3) it is alluded to the fact that God’s amr (command, work) is repeated and continuous. That is, the omnipotent God shows His complete sunnat (law, habit) that has already passed in the perfect ones, in every personal world. Now, please tell us can there be any work of God that has not yet been accomplished?

A474

  • God does not have any work that has not yet been accomplished. In other words, there is no new work of God, but it is true that His every work is renewed.
  • The term “renewal of similitudes” informs us that by God’s command, every dead thing is revived and every old thing renewed.
