العِلْمُ
This verse teaches us to distinguish what we know from what only Allah knows.
إِنَّمَا ٱلۡعِلۡمُ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ وَأُبَلِّغُكُم مَّآ أُرۡسِلۡتُ بِهِۦ
Knowledge is only with Allah, and I convey to you that with which I was sent.
Quran, Al-Ahqaf 46:23
In this passage, someone responds to people who ask him to bring the punishment he warns about. He clarifies that knowledge of the time of that punishment belongs to Allah alone. His role is simply to convey the message entrusted to him. We too can share what we know without claiming to know everything. We remain humble before Allah's knowledge and simply convey what we have been taught.
Today, share a useful piece of information with someone, saying: "I know this, but Allah knows best."
