سُوۡرَةُ الاٴنعَام
قُلۡ إِنِّى نُہِيتُ أَنۡ أَعۡبُدَ ٱلَّذِينَ تَدۡعُونَ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ*!ۚ قُل لَّآ أَتَّبِعُ أَهۡوَآءَڪُمۡ*!ۙ قَدۡ ضَلَلۡتُ إِذً۬ا وَمَآ أَنَا۟ مِنَ ٱلۡمُهۡتَدِينَ (٥٦) قُلۡ إِنِّى عَلَىٰ بَيِّنَةٍ۬ مِّن رَّبِّى وَڪَذَّبۡتُم بِهِۦ*!ۚ مَا عِندِى مَا تَسۡتَعۡجِلُونَ بِهِۦۤ*!ۚ إِنِ ٱلۡحُكۡمُ إِلَّا لِلَّهِ*!ۖ يَقُصُّ ٱلۡحَقَّ*!ۖ وَهُوَ خَيۡرُ ٱلۡفَـٰصِلِينَ (٥٧) قُل لَّوۡ أَنَّ عِندِى مَا تَسۡتَعۡجِلُونَ بِهِۦ لَقُضِىَ ٱلۡأَمۡرُ بَيۡنِى وَبَيۡنَڪُمۡ*!ۗ وَٱللَّهُ أَعۡلَمُ بِٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ (٥٨) ۞ وَعِندَهُ ۥ مَفَاتِحُ ٱلۡغَيۡبِ لَا يَعۡلَمُهَآ إِلَّا هُوَ*!ۚ وَيَعۡلَمُ مَا فِى ٱلۡبَرِّ وَٱلۡبَحۡرِ*!ۚ وَمَا تَسۡقُطُ مِن وَرَقَةٍ إِلَّا يَعۡلَمُهَا وَلَا حَبَّةٍ۬ فِى ظُلُمَـٰتِ ٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَلَا رَطۡبٍ۬ وَلَا يَابِسٍ إِلَّا فِى كِتَـٰبٍ۬ مُّبِينٍ۬ (٥٩)

Say. I am forbidden to worship those other than Allah― whom ye call upon," Say: "I will not follow your vain desires: if I did, I would stray from the path, and be not of the company of those who receive guidance." (56) Say: "For me I (work) on a clear Sign from my Lord, but ye reject Him. What ye would see hastened is not in my power. The Command rests with none but Allah: He declares the truth and He is the best of Judges." (57) Say: "If what ye would see hastened were in my power, the matter would be settled at once between you and me. But Allah knoweth best those who do wrong." (58) With Him are the keys of the Unseen, the treasures that none knoweth but He. He knoweth whatever there is on the earth, and in the sea. Not a leaf doth fall but with His knowledge: there is not a grain in the darkness (or depths) of the earth nor anything fresh or dry (green or withered) but is (inscribed) in a Record Clear (to those who can read). (59) 6:56-59Tafsir Ibn Kathir
بِسۡمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
Only Allah Knows the Unseen
Allah said next,
[وَعِندَهُ مَفَاتِحُ الْغَيْبِ لاَ يَعْلَمُهَآ إِلاَّ هُوَ]
(And with Him are the keys of the Ghayb (all that is hidden), none knows them but He.) Al-Bukhari recorded that Salim bin `Abdullah said that his father said that the Messenger of Allah said,
«مَفَاتِيحُ الْغَيْبِ خَمْسٌ لَا يَعْلَمُهُنَّ إِلَّا الله»
(The keys of the Unseen are five and none except Allah knows them:
[إِنَّ اللَّهَ عِندَهُ عِلْمُ السَّاعَةِ وَيُنَزِّلُ الْغَيْثَ وَيَعْلَمُ مَا فِى الاٌّرْحَامِ وَمَا تَدْرِى نَفْسٌ مَّاذَا تَكْسِبُ غَداً وَمَا تَدْرِى نَفْسٌ بِأَىِّ أَرْضٍ تَمُوتُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَلَيمٌ خَبِيرٌ ]
(Verily, Allah! With Him (Alone) is the knowledge of the Hour, He sends down the rain, and knows that which is in the wombs. No person knows what he will earn tomorrow, and no person knows in what land he will die. Verily, Allah is All-Knower, All-Aware)'') [31:34]. Allah's statement,
[وَيَعْلَمُ مَا فِى الْبَرِّ وَالْبَحْرِ]
(And He knows whatever there is on the land and in the sea means, Allah's honored knowledge encompasses everything, including the creatures living in the sea and on land, and none of it, not even the weight of an atom on earth or in heaven, ever escapes His knowledge. Allah's statement,
[وَمَا تَسْقُطُ مِن وَرَقَةٍ إِلاَّ يَعْلَمُهَا]
(not a leaf falls, but He knows it.) means, He knows the movements of everything including inanimate things. Therefore, what about His knowledge of the living creatures, especially, those whom the Divine laws have been imposed upon such as mankind and the Jinns In another Ayah, Allah said;
[يَعْلَمُ خَآئِنَةَ الاٌّعْيُنِ وَمَا تُخْفِى الصُّدُورُ ]
(Allah knows the fraud of the eyes, and all that the breasts conceal.) [40:19]
