Question:
The statement of Allah the Exalted: [Al-Ahzab: 72]?
Answer:
Carrying it means that Allah placed a sense of feeling in them: will you carry the trust or not? And when He spoke, the heavens trembled from it; all of this is part of that feeling. Similarly, the statement of Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He: [Al-Isra: 44]. This is a glorification that befits them and suits them, and He knows it. So too is their prostration; He knows all of it, and prostration befits them. This means that they say: Our Lord, do not burden us with the trust; we do not want it.
The statement of Allah the Exalted:
Indeed, we offered the Trust to the heavens and the earth

The seven heavens and the earth and whatever is in them exalt Him. And there is not a thing except that it exalts [Allah] by His praise
تُسَبِّحُ لَهُ السَّمَاوَاتُ السَّبْعُ وَالْأَرْضُ وَمَنْ فِيهِنَّ وَإِنْ مِنْ شَيْءٍ إِلَّا يُسَبِّحُ بِحَمْدِهِ
