It is God who has made the earth a resting-place for you and the sky a canopy, and has formed you -- and formed you so well -- and provided for you sustenance out of the good things of life.Such is God, your Sustainer: hallowed, then, is God, the Sustainer of all the worlds!Ghafir 40:64, tr. Asad Look at every animal from the gnat to the elephant:they all are God's family and dependent on Him for their nourishment.What a nourisher is God!All these griefs within our heartsarise from the smoke and dustof our existence and vain desires.Mathnawi I:2295-2296, tr.
