The Qur’anic concept of Creation

• Creation means the emergence of phenomena in a natural, time-consuming, step-by-step process with the interference of natural laws supported by God’s command.
• While acknowledging the involvement of natural causes in the emergence of phenomena, the Qur’an mentions God’s command as the primary cause that all causes depend on.

The Qur’anic concept of Commandment: “Malakūt.”

•  The Qur’an’s emphasis on the immediate impact and definite fulfilment of God’s “command”, as interpreted by “Be, then it will become”, has led a group of Qur’anic scholars to interpret this as the realm of “amr” and elaborated its features as one realm among “unseen realms”. According to them, the kingdom of amr refers to the special realm of God, which is free of all material features such as time, place, gradation, movement, quantity, quality and the interference of humans as well as other natural elements and factors of the world of Khalq(creation) as determined by God’s will, judgment and decree.
