رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ 4627. Narrated 'Abdullāh Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, "The keys of Al-Ghaib (the Unseen) are five: Verily, Allāh! With Him (Alone) is the knowledge of the Hour, He sends down the rain, and knows that which is in the wombs. No person knows what he will earn tomorrow, and no person knows in what land he will die. Verily, Allāh is All-Knower, All-Aware (of things)." (V.31:34) (1) (Ch. 1) Al-Ghaib: (literally means a thing not seen).
