Question:
We conclude this session with a question from one of the brothers, who asks: What is the interpretation of the noble verse
And it is Allah who is [the only] deity in the heaven, and on the earth [the only] deityوَهُوَ الَّذِي فِي السَّمَاءِ إِلَٰهٌ وَفِي الْأَرْضِ إِلَٰهٌ
[Az-Zukhruf 43:84]
?

Answer:
Yes, "Ilah" means the one who is worshipped,
And it is Allah who is [the only] deity in the heaven, and on the earth [the only] deityوَهُوَ الَّذِي فِي السَّمَاءِ إِلَٰهٌ وَفِي الْأَرْضِ إِلَٰهٌ
[Az-Zukhruf 43:84]
, meaning that He is worshipped in the heavens and worshipped on the earth. The angels worship Him, and those in the heavens worship Allah, and those on the earth also worship Him. Yes.
