"O mankind, what has deceived you concerning your Lord, the Generous, Who created you, proportioned you, and balanced you? In whatever form He willed has He assembled you."

(Qur'an: Surah Al-Infitar [The Cleaving] 82, verse 8)


“It is We Who Created you and gave you shape.”

(Qur'an: Surah ar-Araf [The Heights] 7, verse 11)

 

He has designed us in such a way that we should thank him as much as we can throughout our days. The fact that we have been blessed with so many blessing that we can’t even begin to enumerate them within ourselves, let alone the number of blessing he has placed around us in our daily lives.

 

"And of His signs is the creation of the heavens and the earth and the diversity of your languages and your colours. Indeed in that are signs for those of knowledge."

(Qur'an: Surah Ar-Rum [The Romans] 30, verse 22)

 

Allah has created us all differently, we all have something that is different, whether it is our hair, eyes, nose, skin colour, height, size etc. Allah chose what we would look like, He chose how tall we are, He hand picked what colour our eyes, hair and skin was going to be. He is the Fashioner, the Designer, the Shaper.

 

"It is He who forms you in the wombs however He wills. There is no deity except Him, the Exalted in Might, the Wise."

(Qur'an: Surah Ali Imran [The Family of Imran] 3, verse 6)

 

 

 

"And certainly did We created man from an extract of clay. Then We placed him as a sperm-drop in a firm lodging. Then We made the perm-drop into a clinging clot, and We made the clinging clot into a lump[ of flesh], and We made [from] the lump, bones, and We covered the bones with flesh; then We developed him into another creation. So blessed is Allah, the Best of Creators."

[Qur'an: Surah al-Mu'mimun (The Believers) 23, verse 12-14]

 

 

"He created the heavens and the earth in truth and formed you and perfected your forms; and to Him is the [final ] destination." 

[Qur'an: Surat l-Taghabun (Mutual Loss & Gain) 64, verse 3]

 

Allah has created us and fashioned us. To Him we ought to be grateful, He made our hair the colour and texture that it is, He decided on the colour of our skin, He chose the height we would grow, our eye colour, the size of our noses, ears etc. To Him we ought to be grateful no matter what our appearances are, but yet we find ourselves unhappy with the way we look...Meaning we are unhappy with the decree of Allah. Just think about it, when we complain too much about our appearances, we are complaining about Allah, because He created us that way

"In whatever form He willed He assembled you."

(Qur'an: Surah al-Infitar [the Cleaving] 82, verse 8)

 

 

“It is Allah who made for you the earth a place of settlement and the sky a ceiling and formed you and perfected your forms and provided you with good things. That is Allah, your Lord; then blessed is Allah, Lord of the Worlds.”

(Qur'an: Surah al-Ghafir [The Forgiver] 40, verse 64)
