It is God who has given you the earth for a resting place and the heavens for a canopy. He shaped you, formed you well, and provided you with good things. Such is God, your Lord, so glory be to Him, the Lord of the Universe.1

The earth has been endowed with countless physical resources. On this basis it has been possible for creatures like human beings to build up their civilization in the world. Similarly, in the atmosphere above the earth there are countless favourable arrangements in which if there occurred even the slightest of disturbances, the whole system of human life would go topsy-turvy. Then, the constitution of man has been framed in such a sublime manner that he has become the most superior creature in the world, both in respect of his mind as well as his physique. So, who can be worthy of man’s devotion and worship except the Creator who has done all this?
