Real power

Salaams all,

Hope you all are doing well. I've just recently started my fourth
year of medicine at UVA (we have a weird schedule and really long
fourth year). Right now I'm about 90% certain I will be applying for
a residency in dermatology. Please make dua for me. Other than
school, there is not much new in my life other than looking forward to
my sister's wedding this fall inshallah. My niece Lena is two years
old now and my nephew Humza is about 10 months. The rest of my family
is good alhamdulillah.

O mankind! A similitude has been coined, so listen to it (carefully):
Verily! those on whom you call besides Allâh, cannot create (even) a
fly, even though they combine together for the purpose. And if the fly
snatches away a thing from them, they will have no power to release it
from the fly. So weak are (both) the seeker and the sought. (22:73)

I chose the following verse because I thought it showed the real power
of Allah (SWT) when compared to us. Mashallah humankind has
progressed so much in the fields of technology and many things are
capable now that were not even fathomable in the past. However, try
as we may, we will never come close to creating even the most simplest
of Allah's (SWT) creations.
