Tafsir
When Allah asked the angels to present the names of creation, they could not — and they responded with one of the most beautiful declarations in the Quran: Exalted are You; we have no knowledge except what You have taught us. Indeed, it is You who is the Knowing, the Wise. This verse, for , captures the fundamental posture of the worshipper before Allah: the recognition that all knowledge is a gift, that we know nothing except by divine permission and teaching. The angels response is a model of spiritual humility — and a reminder that true wisdom begins not with confidence in one's own understanding but with acknowledgment of its limits before the infinite knowledge of Allah.
