Luqman message to his son

❝O my beloved son! If it be (anything) equal to the weight of a grain of mustard seed, & though it is in a rock, or in the heavens or in the earth, Allah will bring it forth. Verily, Allah is {Lateef | Subtle}, {Khabeer | Well-Aware}.❞  

⁠●⁠[Surah Luqman 31:16]

This mustard seed is a parable of a sin that a person goes to great lengths to hide from the sight of people. Imagine a person committing a sin for 20, 30 years, and his own family member and society would never, ever expect or imagine that from him. That's how well the sin is hidden.

🔹But Allah is Lateef, Khabeer; Who has the precision to locate that sin, Who knows exactly what a person did, how he did it, when he did it, as well as the specific reason why he committed that sin.

🔹This was what Luqman wanted his son to know - that nothing ever escapes the Knowledge of Allah.

❝And He is with you (by His Knowledge) wheresoever you may be. And Allah is the All-Seer of what you do.❞ (SURAH AL-HADID 57:4)

And Allah loves this parable so much that He subhanahu wa ta'ala makes it a part of the Qur'an for us to remember and live by. We ask Allah to make us of those who fear and feel shy of His Sight upon us more than the sight of people upon us.
