اَلْبَقَرَة

Al Baqarah

HR Background

وَ لِلّٰهِ الْمَشْرِقُ وَ الْمَغْرِبُۗ-فَاَیْنَمَا تُوَلُّوْا فَثَمَّ وَجْهُ اللّٰهِؕ-اِنَّ اللّٰهَ وَاسِعٌ عَلِیْمٌ(115)

English translation of Kanz-ul-Irfan

And the East and West belong to Allah alone, so wherever you turn your face, you will find the mercy of Allah[1] inclined to you. Indeed, Allah is Most-Bestowing, All-Knowing.

Commentary

[1]

Wajh literally means face; however, Allah Almighty is free from having a face (like creatures have), hence this verse is from the ambiguous verses (mutashābihāt), and Allah Almighty knows best regarding its true meaning.
