"Inna aradna al-amanata 'alas-samawati w'al-'ardi w'al-jibali fa-abayna 'an tahmilnaha wa ashfaqna minha wa hamalaha'l-insan. Innahu kana zuluman jahula."
"We did indeed offer the Trust to the Heavens and the earth and the mountains, but they refused to undertake it, being afraid thereof, but Man undertook it. He was indeed unjust and ignorant.'' [al-Qur'an 33:72]
The Trust that Allah asked His creation to bear is the knowledge of Him. It is the Truth and man himself is created in the image of Truth and the Truth is only fully manifest in man, not in anything else created. It is man even in his material being who accepted to carry Allah's trust. Man evolved into a just and wise being only through the mercy of Allah that descended upon him when he accepted His Trust.
" ittaqu firasat'il m'umin, fa innahu yanzuru bi nuri-Allah "
"Beware of the [sagacious and intuitive God-given] sight of the believer who sees [beyond appearances] with the light of Allah"
