IN
ORDER TO CREATE, GOD HAS NO NEED TO DESIGN
It’s
important that the word “design” be properly
understood. That God has created a flawless design does
not mean that He first made a plan and then followed
it. God, the Lord of the Earth and the heavens, needs
no “designs” in order to create. God is exalted
above all such deficiencies. His planning and creation
take place at the same instant.
Whenever God wills a thing to come about, it is enough for
Him just to say, "Be!"
As verses of the Qur’an tell us:
His
command when He desires a thing is just to say to it, “Be!” and
it is. (Qur’an, 36: 82)
[God is] the Originator of the heavens and Earth.
When He decides on something, He just says to it, “Be!” and
it is. (Qur’an, 2: 117)
