This lecture explores the three dimensions of Allah's knowledge as detailed in Surah Taghabun. The first is His knowledge of everything in the heavens and earth. The second is His awareness of both outward actions and hidden intentions. The third, and most profound, is His knowledge of the contents of the human heart, including subconscious thoughts and motivations. Humans often deceive themselves, believing their intentions are pure when they are not. Allah knows these hidden biases. This discussion connects these concepts to modern psychology, explaining the conscious, subconscious, and unconscious mind. It highlights that Allah is aware of the internal struggles, temptations, and the turmoil within the human psyche, even before the individual is consciously aware of them.
