God's ownership of all that is in the heavens and earth

Beginning with al-Baqara 284, Sha'rawi holds that all sovereignty belongs to God, and that humans hold a thing as an accident that ends with death or changing circumstances, and no one owns himself ¹.

He says that whoever reaches the height of wealth, standing or health should beware, since a blessing that is complete turns toward decline. He adds verses and a story about a woman who prayed that the caliph's blessing be complete; the caliph understood that completion means the end of it. The story is not checked ².

He holds that accounting is not by knowledge alone but by a clear record, and cites the verses on the book and the scales. He holds that those whose good and bad deeds are equal are the people of the heights, whom God's mercy reaches before His wrath ³.

He reports that God may let a hidden good quality of a person be recompensed by taking from the good deeds of others, and that remorse for a sin is written as a good deed. He gives the saying that a sin which produces humility is better than an obedience which produces pride, without naming its author ^{4 5 6}.
