53:9
It is worth noting that wherever the word “kull (whole, entire, all, everyone)” is mentioned in the holy Qur'an it is applicable to the entire universe, unless it is specified otherwise. With such universal rules, one or more examples are also given, as behind the veil of the above mentioned verse it is said to humankind in a wisdom-filled way that a circle is the example of two bows (semi circles=qawsayn), of which one appears immediately and the other is related to thinking and reflection. The holy Prophet Muhammad had seen them at the distance of two bows or nearer still (53:9). That is, he had seen the two worlds in God and God in the two worlds.
