"The seven heavens glorify Him," meaning: and those within them, "and the earth and whoever is in it" among the believers and those who glorify Him from among the creation. "And there is not a thing except that it exalts [Allah] by His praise, but you do not understand their way of glorifying." Al-Hasan used to say: "The mountain glorifies [Allah]; so if something is cut from it, the severed part does not glorify [Him], but the main body does. Likewise, the tree: what is cut from it does not glorify [Him], yet it [the tree itself] glorifies [Him]." "But you do not understand their way of glorifying. Indeed, He is ever Forbearing and Forgiving" regarding His creation, for He does not hasten [to punish] as some of them hasten upon others, and He is "Forgiving" to them if they repent and reconsider their actions.
