191. " those who remember allah while standing, sitting and lying on their
sides, and mediate on the creation of the heavens and the earth,
(seriously saying) ` our lord! you have not created (all) this in vain!
glory be to you! save us then from the torment of the fire '."

commentary:
the remembrance of allah in all conditions of a person is the sign
of wisdom.

" those who remember allah while standing, sitting and lying on their
sides, ..."

and, `the possessors of intellects' are those who remember allah
and contemplate. the qur'an introduces them such:

" those who remember allah while standing, sitting and lying on their sides,
and mediate ..."

faith is worthy when it is based on intelligence and contemplation. it
says:

"... and mediate on the creation of the heavens and the earth, ..."

we should know this fact that the farther we keep aloof from the
godly aims, the nearer we will approach to hell and we must return that
distance again. the world of creation has not been done in vain even
though we do not realize all its secrets.

"... ` our lord! you have not created (all) this in vain! glory be to you!
save us then from the torment of the fire '."
