All Intercession Is Allah’s
قُل لِّلَّهِ ٱلشَّفَٰعَةُ جَمِيعࣰاۖ لَّهُۥ مُلۡكُ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِۖ ثُمَّ إِلَيۡهِ تُرۡجَعُونَ ٤٤
Say: Unto Allah belongeth all intercession. His is the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth. And afterward unto Him ye will be brought back.
Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall
Meaning
Say: “To Allah belongs all intercession.”
Insight
According to Elmalılı, He owns intercession; none may intercede without His permission, and those permitted intercede mindful of His pleasure.
Reflect
Strive to win Allah’s pleasure today.
