The Shaykh :

Or did they create the heavens and the earth

أم خلقوا السماوات والأرض

[At-Tur 52:36]

And what is the answer? Did they create the heavens and the earth? No, the one who created the heavens and the earth is Allah, so even though they

And if you asked them, "Who created the heavens and earth?" they would surely say, "Allah."

ولئن سألتهم من خلق السماوات والأرض ليقولن الله

[Luqman 31:25]

deny His law and lie about His Messenger,

⁽³⁶⁾ Or did they create the heavens and the earth? Rather, they are not certain. ⁽³⁷⁾ Or have they the depositories [containing the provision] of your Lord? Or are they the controllers [of them]?

أم خلقوا السماوات والأرض بل لا يوقنون أم عندهم خزائن ربك

[At-Tur 52:36-37]

the answer is no. Do the treasuries of Allah, the treasuries of His provision, belong to them? No, rather they are with Allah alone.

Or are they the controllers [of them]?

أم هم المصيطرون

[At-Tur 52:37]

Are they the ones who have control and authority? The answer is that none of that is the case.
