قُلْ لَوْ كَانَ الْبَحْرُ مِدَادًا لِكَلِمَاتِ رَبِّي لَنَفِدَ الْبَحْرُ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَنْفَدَ كَلِمَاتُ رَبِّي وَلَوْ جِئْنَا بِمِثْلِهِ مَدَدًا
Say, "If the sea were ink for [writing] the words of my Lord, the sea would be exhausted before the words of my Lord were exhausted, even if We brought the like of it as a supplement."

(Say: Though the sea became ink for the Words of my Lord…) [18:109]. Ibn 'Abbas said: “When theProphet, Allah bless him and give him peace, told them (… and knowledge ye have been vouchsafed butlittle), the Jews said: 'How can this be when we have been given the Torah? He who has been given theTorah has been given abundant goodness!' Upon which this verse was revealed (Say: Though the seabecame ink for the Words of my Lord…)”.
قُل لَّوْ كَانَ الْبَحْرُ مِدَاداً لِّكَلِمَـتِ رَبِّى لَنَفِدَ الْبَحْرُ قَبْلَ أَن تَنفَدَ كَلِمَـتُ رَبِّى وَلَوْ جِئْنَا بِمِثْلِهِ مَدَداً
(109. Say: "If the sea were ink for the Words of my Lord, surely, the sea would be exhausted before the Words of my Lord would be finished, even if We brought like it for its aid.'')
Allah says: `Say, O Muhammad, if the water of the sea were ink for a pen to write down the words, wisdom and signs of Allah, the sea would run dry before it all could be written down.
وَلَوْ جِئْنَا بِمِثْلِهِ
(even if We brought like it) means, another sea, then another, and so on, additional seas to be used for writing. The Words of Allah would still never run out. As Allah says:
وَلَوْ أَنَّمَا فِى الاٌّرْضِ مِن شَجَرَةٍ أَقْلاَمٌ وَالْبَحْرُ يَمُدُّهُ مِن بَعْدِهِ سَبْعَةُ أَبْحُرٍ مَّا نَفِدَتْ كَلِمَـتُ اللَّهِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌ
(And if all the trees on the earth were pens and the sea (were ink), with seven seas behind it to increase it, yet the Words of Allah would not be exhausted. Verily, Allah is All-Mighty, All-Wise.) 31:27 Ar-Rabi` bin Anas said, "The parable of the knowledge of all of mankind, in comparison to the knowledge of Allah, is that of a drop of water in comparison to all of the oceans.'' Allah revealed that:
قُل لَّوْ كَانَ الْبَحْرُ مِدَاداً لِّكَلِمَـتِ رَبِّى لَنَفِدَ الْبَحْرُ قَبْلَ أَن تَنفَدَ كَلِمَـتُ رَبِّى
(Say: "If the sea were ink for the Words of my Lord, surely, the sea would be exhausted before the Words of my Lord would be finished,) Allah says that even if those oceans were ink for the Words of Allah, and all the trees were pens, the pens would be broken and the water of the sea would run dry, and the Words of Allah would remain, for nothing can outlast them. For no one can comprehend the greatness of Allah or praise Him as He deserves to be praised, except the One Who praises Himself. Our Lord is as He says He is and He is beyond what we can say. The blessings of this world, the beginning and end of it, in comparison to the blessings of the Hereafter, are like a mustard seed compared to the entire world.

Kepada mereka tentang keagungan Allah, keluasan sifat-Nya dan bahwa manusia tidak mampu mencapainya.
Dalam ayat lain disebutkan, âDan seandainya pohon-pohon di bumi menjadi pena dan laut (menjadi tinta), ditambahkan kepadanya tujuh laut (lagi) setelah (kering)nya, niscaya tidak akan habis-habisnya (dituliskan) kalimat Allah. Sesungguhnya Allah Maha Perkasa lagi Maha Bijaksana.â (Terj. Luqman: 27) ayat di atas termasuk pendekatakan makna agar lebih mudah dicerna, karena semua yang disebutkan itu makhluk, sedangkan makhluk ada habisnya, adapun firman Allah, maka termasuk sifat-Nya, sedangkan sifat-Nya bukan makhluk dan tidak ada batasnya. Keluasan dan kebesaran apa saja yang dibayangkan hati, maka Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala lebih dari itu, demikian pula semua sifat Allah Taâala, seperti ilmu-Nya, hikmah-Nya, qudrat(kekuasaan)-Nya dan rahmat-Nya. Oleh karena itu, jika pengetahuan makhluk terdahulu maupun yang datang kemudian dikumpulkan, baik yang terdiri dari penghuni langit maupun penghuni bumi, tentu jika dihubungkan kepada ilmu Allah, maka lebih kecil daripada air yang diteguk oleh seekor burung dengan paruhnya ke tengah-tengah lautan. Yang demikian adalah karena Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala memiliki sifat-sifat yang agung lagi luas, dan bahwa kepada-Nya kembali semua kesudahan.
