The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The scholars (may Allah have mercy on them) say: We know Allah through His signs and His created things, and they give as examples the night and the day, and the sun and the moon.
The Shaykh:
Created things, yes.
The questioner:
So what is the difference between the signs and the created things?

The recited signs are the Qur'an, and the visible signs are the created things, yes.
