MEANING OF AL MUSAWWIR

Surah Ghafir 40:64 Exposition 




With the name Allah (the All-Encompassing Source whose name encompasses the measurements of existence and the unfolding chain of events leading to all observable outcomes), the Rahmaan, the Raheem. (The Rahmaan is the boundless system of factual knowledge and the Raheem is the grace bestowed upon those who sincerely seek and engage with this wisdom through the guidance of Ar Rahmaan). 
 

Allah, it is He who has made for you al ardh / the lower consciousness as karaaran / an established settledness and wassamaa' / the higher consciousness as bina'an / a construct, and has given sawwarakum / you shape and made your shapes good and has provided you with good things. That is Allah, your Lord, then blessed be Allah, the Rabb / Lord of the 'Alamin (Lord of all known empirical and facts). 


In surah Al Baqarah 2:22 Allah described bina'an / a construct where Allah reveals from samaa' / higher consciousness maa / flowing of knowledge (that give life to the dead soul) and brought forth samaarat / increased intelligence as rizqan / provision for you.  This flow of knowledge and increased intelligence is required for us to shape ourselves to be a better person in the nearnest of Allah.  For those who do not yet experience their true nature of self, good ethics and morals are required as guidelines to evolve into a good person (shape / form).  Allah is al musawwir, the bestower of form, the Shaper.
