Allah Ta'ala being All-knowing and in control of everything
Question
Many places in the Quraan Allah Ta'ala says, "He does not forget or He does not sleep or slumber or He is not ghafil." so when Allah Ta'ala is not affirming something for himself anywhere in the Quraan, that also is an attribute or refers to an attribute?
Answer
This refers to the quality of Allah Ta'ala being All-knowing and in control of everything.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
