Scholarly Explanation

The All-Able, the One who has absolute power.

Strike a metaphor for them of the life of the world, it is like water which We send down from the sky and the plants of the earth combine with it but then become dry chaff scattered by the winds. Allah is Muqtadir over everything.

[al-Kahf (18): 45]

From “Explanation to the Beautiful and Perfect Names of Allah” — Shaykh as-Sa’di (d.1376H)
