Benefits of the saying of Allah the Exalted: “And Allah was seeing what you were doing”

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
It is also derived from the noble verse the comprehensiveness of the knowledge of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) regarding everything we do.
And ever is Allah, of what you do, Seeing.وَكَانَ اللَّهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ بَصِيرًا
[Al-Ahzab 33:9]
Does this include the actions of the heart? Yes, it includes them, as evidenced by the saying of Allah the Exalted:
And We have already created man and know what his soul whispers to him وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا الإِنْسَانَ وَنَعْلَمُ مَا تُوَسْوِسُ بِهِ نَفْسُهُ
[Q:16], which is an action of the heart. As for the actions of the limbs, that is apparent.
It is also derived from the noble verse encouragement and warning.
And ever is Allah, of what you do, Seeing. وَكَانَ اللَّهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ بَصِيرًا
[Al-Ahzab 33:9]
Indeed, this contains encouragement regarding righteous deeds, in that this deed will not be wasted because it is known to Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), and He must reward for it. And it is a warning for whom? Not, as we say, only for the disbelievers, but for everyone who commits a sin. It is a threat to him when your soul one day prompts you to commit a sin because no one from among the creation is aware of it; so remember that Allah is aware of you.
And ever is Allah, of what you do, Seeing. وَكَانَ اللَّهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ بَصِيرًا
[Al-Ahzab 33:9]
For this reason, it came in the hadith from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):
The best of faith is that you know that Allah is with you wherever you are أفضل الإيمان أن تعلم أن الله معك حيث ما كنت
He is not with you in your location, but He is with you, and He is on His Throne (Glorified and Exalted is He), encompassing you.
