The Qur’an For All Humanity
Divine Surveillance
~ 59 ~
The study of the world tells us that there exists a
faultless system of “recording”. Man’s thoughts are
being imprinted on his mental canvas forever. Each
word man utters persists permanently in the form
of airwaves. Human action is so accurately
preserved in the external world through heat waves
that it can be re-enacted at any moment. All these
are known realities. Moreover, these realities make
understandable this statement of the Qur’an that
human intentions, sayings and doings, all are in the
knowledge of the Creator. Everything related to
man is being recorded by angels in their invisible
registers.
These verses vividly depict the scene of life after
death and
Qiyamah
(Doomsday). We are told what
will be the fate of those who had become insolent
on finding themselves free in this world. This
depiction is so clear that it needs no further
illustration.
