Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. In the saying of Allah the Exalted[Az-Zalzalah 99:7], is it taken from this verse that the dhirrah is the smallest of Allah's creations?
Answer:
The dhirrah is the dust particle; it is not the insect you see. The dhirrah referred to is the dust that flies in the air. You see dust flying in the air; that is the dhirrah. Yes.
