Allah t ells us of His might , pride, maj est y, beaut iful Names and sublime at t ribut es, and His perfect Words which no one can encompass. No human being knows t heir essence or nat ure, or how many t hey are. As t he Leader of Mankind and Seal of t he Messengers said:

(And if all t he t rees on t he eart h were pens and t he sea, wit h seven seas behind it t o add t o it s, yet t he Words of Allah would not be exhaust ed.) meaning, even if all t he t rees on eart h were made int o pens and t he sea was made int o ink, and t opped up wit h seven more like it , and t hey were used t o writ e t he Words of Allah showing His might , at t ribut es and maj est y, t he pens would break and t he ink would run dry, even if more were brought . The number seven is used t o indicat e a large amount , it is not t o be t aken lit erally or t o be underst ood as referring t o t he seven oceans of t he world, as was suggest ed by t hose who t ook t his idea from Israelit e st ories, which we neit her believe nor rej ect .

(Say: "If t he sea were ink for t he Words of my Lord, surely, t he sea would be exhaust ed before t he Words of my Lord would be finished, even if We brought like it for it s aid.'') (18:109). The words

(Verily, Allah is All-Might y, All-Wise.) means, He is All-Might y and has subj ugat ed all t hings t o His will, so not hing can prevent what He wills, and none can oppose or put back His decision.
He is All-Wise in His creat ion, commands, Words, act ions, Laws and all His affairs.
