This lecture explains the concept of *tasbeeh* – the glorification of God – as inherent in the very fabric of creation. It clarifies that *tasbeeh* isn't limited to verbal recitation but encompasses the perfect and sustained existence of all things, free from imperfection or need. The lecture draws parallels between the act of floating or orbiting – maintaining a fixed course – and the continuous glorification of God by the universe. Every element, from planets to particles, testifies to the Creator’s perfection and power. The universe operates flawlessly, demonstrating divine knowledge, wisdom, and omnipotence. True *tasbeeh* is the silent testimony of creation to its perfect Creator, a being free from all flaws, weakness, and dependence.

This preservation extends to the precise documentation of variations in recitation, ensuring the integrity of the divine text.
