How do we know that Allah knows what is in the intentions?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

Allah's knowledge encompasses all things, including the intentions of creation and what their hearts conceal, as stated in the Quranic verses: "He knows the fraud of the eyes and what the breasts conceal" and "Indeed, He is Knowing of that within the breasts." Allah is elevated above His Throne, and despite His highness, nothing conceals Him from His creation. Rather, He is closer to them than their innermost selves through His knowledge, encompassing power, and might. This constant divine oversight yields the servant's continuous awareness and certainty of Allah's knowledge of their apparent and hidden states at all times.
