Taking Action

The Quran frequently mentions actions - both divine actions and human deeds. Key verbs include:

- عَمِلَ (ʿamila) = he did/worked

- خَلَقَ (khalaqa) = he created

- جَعَلَ (jaʿala) = he made/appointed

- أَنزَلَ (anzala) = he sent down

These verbs appear hundreds of times in the Quran.
