Now to create a harmony between the Earth and our human faculties using your new ability.
Macrocosmic
‘Earth’ is the beautiful physical Earth we have come to know.
Microcosmic
‘Earth’ now becomes a reference to ‘Hearts of the friends of Allah’
Read the verse again...
“Is He [not best] who made the hearts of the friends of Allah a stable ground…” (27:61)
The verses (or 'Ayah' أ ي ي in Arabic meaning 'signs') of the beautiful Qur'an take hold of its deeper meaning when reading in its microcosmic form. When 'Earth' transforms to 'hearts of the friends of Allah' it still keeps the same meaning that we can understand but invites us to something new.
