Thirty years, that is why We sent down the three centuries from the time of His call to the Day of Resurrection as a month, and We made the three centuries like three years of deception.

[ Choosing fasting from among the acts of worship ]

As for his choice of fasting,

The Prophet, may God s prayers and peace be upon him, said to someone who asked him about fasting, for there is no equivalent to him.

So he denied the homosexuality of fasting, so it is like there is nothing like it.

Fasting told me

And He made all acts of worship entirely for man, since fasting is an attribute of exaltation, and it is not necessary to be pious except for Him, the Most High

[ Choose Ramadan from among the months ]

As for his choice of the months, the month of Ramadan, because of his participation in the name, for Ramadan is one of the divine names, so it was assigned to him the sanctity that is for the rest of the months of the year, and he made it one of the lunar months so that his blessing pervaded all the months of the year. We have the month of Ramadan, then the month of Rabi al-Awwal, then the month of Rajab, then Sha ban, then Dhu al-Hijjah, then Shawwal, then Dhul-Qa dah, then Muharram. I have knowledge of the order of merit in these, or they are equal in merit, which is the most common in my opinion.

[ Choose water from among the pillars ]

And as for his choice of the pillars of the pillar of water, because from water he made every living thing, even the Throne, when he created it.

[ Choosing the Throne from the Heavens ]

And as for his choice of the spheres, the Throne, because he has encompassed all bodies, and God encompasses all things, and He has priority in the spheres and what is below them, so He is the First All-encompassing. Everything else is his property, and it has been mentioned that he is distinguished from others, so he had to be chosen for priority and encompassing, because the heavens and the earth in the hollow of the throne are like a ring in the desert, and the chair in the hollow of the throne is like a link in the desert

[ choosing the angels from among the servants ]

And he chose from among the servants the angels, for they are created from light, so their bodies are luminous by origin, so they are the closest relative of all other creatures to the divine light.

The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, was praying that God would make him a light

What is known from the darkness of nature

[ Choose the blinds from among the two signs ]

And he chose from the blind verses, and it was for him before the creation of creation, and from him he created the dominant angels, so they understood them in his majesty, then he created the creation, so their dominance in the majesty of his beauty preoccupied them with seeing nothing but Him. To his glory, he is with us wherever we are

[ Selecting the Messengers from among the people ]

And he chose among the people the Messengers to inform about God what the matter was upon Him, for He only brought them out to know Him, because He liked to be known, so He knew them by the Messengers with what He sent them of books and newspapers, so they knew Him self-knowledge as they knew Him by the intellects He created for them and gave them the power of intellectual consideration, so they knew Him by evidence and proofs, a negative existential knowledge that they did not know. The power of the mind in its independence was more than this, then after that the messengers came after him with self-knowledge, so the creation worshiped the God who knew them by his law, since the mind does not give any action, nor closeness to closeness, nor an intrinsic attribute that confirms the truth. Except that there is nothing like Him in addition to the sufficient rather than affirming it as an attribute, so He chose the Messengers to convey what is not independent of the mind by its realization of knowledge in itself and with what is close to it in terms of deeds, abandonment and lineage.

[ Choosing the Name Allah from among the Most Beautiful Names ]

And he chose from the names the name Allah, so he established it in words in its place, as it is the name that is descriptive and not descriptive, so all the nouns have an adjective, and it is not an epithet. Then there is a god other than him

[ Divine choices are an invitation to the minds to choose, which is consideration and insight ]

This we have mentioned of the divine choices, what brings out the exit of alerting to the minds who are unaware of what you were called to of consideration and insight, and we did not complete the matter alone, because we do not know by way of detail the details of what God created from the existing things, even if we appreciate what God has enabled us to limit the existing things, so everything is included in that and we We only challenged in this to know the individuality of what He chose and chose from each type of creatures confined to existence, existing by themselves, biased and impartial, from existing by themselves and not existing by themselves, and the type that does not accept bias except by dependence and what consisted of that and what did not consist, and the sections of the world and existing beings were confined to what we mentioned ?

[ What the mind is independent of in choosing and what is above its level ]

Then there is a relative detail with which the mind can be independent, which is the comparison of things to one another by the distinction of their ranks, the affection of some over the other, the influence of some over others, and the interdependence of some on others, but the comparison of divine proximity by taking care of them, not what their realities give them is not.
