Al Imran

HR Background

وَ مَكَرُوْا وَ مَكَرَ اللّٰهُؕ-وَ اللّٰهُ خَیْرُ الْمٰكِرِیْنَ(54)

English translation of Kanz-ul-Irfan

And the disbelievers plotted, and Allah planned—and Allah is the best of planners.[1]

Commentary

[1]

In common usage, Arabic and Urdu, “makr” literally means “to deceive”—and this certainly does not befit the Majesty of Allah Almighty because He Almighty is perfect and flawless. It is therefore not permissible to use this word in relation to Allah Almighty without a valid interpretation. Wherever this expression is mentioned, it means the hidden plan or decree of Allah Almighty.
