Question:
Honorable Shaykh. Abu al-Ghayth, residing in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in the southern region, says: What is the interpretation of the noble verse in Surat al-Mulk in the saying of Allah the Exalted
so walk among its slopes and eat of His provision - and to Him is the resurrection.فَامْشُوا فِي مَنَاكِبِهَا وَكُلُوا مِن رِّزْقِهِ وَإِلَيْهِ النُّشُورُ
[Al-Mulk 67:15]


Answer:
Yes, Allah the Exalted said:
It is He who made the earth tame for youهُوَ الَّذِي جَعَلَ لَكُمُ الْأَرْضَ ذَلُولًا
[Al-Mulk 67:15]
meaning made easy and spread out,
so walk among its slopesفَامْشُوا فِي مَنَاكِبِهَا
[Al-Mulk 67:15]
in its sides and ends to seek sustenance. A person travels to seek sustenance; others travel across the earth seeking from the bounty of Allah. He travels to seek sustenance in the highlands of the earth and eats from the sustenance of Allah that He deposited in this earth. Yes. And to Him is the resurrection, meaning to Him is the resurrection on the Day of Judgment. So Allah the Exalted resurrects the creatures and spreads them out on the Day of Judgment for the reckoning and the reward. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
