Why have languages multiplied in the world, even though the origin of all nations is one, from Adam and Eve?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Allah knows best the wisdom behind the diversity of languages, but we believe that our Lord is All-Wise and All-Knowing. This diversity might be an indication of His immense power, or there might be other wisdoms that we do not comprehend. In summary, the divergence of tongues indicates the power of Allah, the Exalted, and it is among His signs, just as the diversity of colors, sizes, and temperaments indicates it.
