Excerpt from Ibrahim Dewla’s speeches.

Prophets would call people to Allah through two methods:

1. Remind people of Allah’s blessings to them cause if one reflects, they will become humble and submit.

2. Explain Allah’s limitless power

Allah’s power is His attribute. Everything happens through His power. Allah is not dependent on anything while everything dependent on Him. Allah can make the weak powerful, powerful weak, death to living, give life to dead. How did Allah create you? From a dirty drop of fluid.

“Did We not create you from a worthless fluid?” (77:20)

Allah’s power is amazing. Origin of human is dirty fluid but when this human comes to this world, there is no creation like him. Such beautiful form, face, intelligence, understanding, in everyway.

Way of Prophets is to call people to reflect on Allah’s blessings and power. Sheikh Saadi رحمة الله عليه scholar of the past, mentions of Allah’s power:

Did you see Allah’s power? Two drops

One raindrop fell into sea, it became a dazzling pearl

One (seminal) drop fell in womb, it became a beautiful human being

Is there anyone (other than Allah) who can fashion in water? Show us!

That raindrop when it fell in the sea, it became a valuable pearl. Businesses, an industry is formed from it. As for human, when baby enters this world, he comes with a beautiful face. When his mother bathes him, brings him outside. Allah has created such a face; everyone that sees it shows affection.

Why is this considered Allah’s great power? It’s not possible to create a form or shape in water. You can make it on paper, wood or on the wall. But you won’t be able to do so in water. Allah has created the shape of pearl and human in water. This is Allah’s power, an invitation to turn to Him.
