(Allâh says to His Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم): "Allâh (Alone) created the heavens and the earth with truth (and none shared Him in their creation)." Verily! Therein is surely a sign for those who believe.

44. Allah created the heavens [70] and the earth in truth. Surely, in their creation is a sign [71] for those who believe.

[70] That is, the earth and the heavens or the system of the universe have not been created in vain; rather, countless benefits and advantages are being derived from this system. The life and survival of every kind of creature living on earth depend on this system of the universe. If even a single component of this system is removed, not only will the lives of living beings come to an end, but even plants, vegetation, and trees will not be able to grow on earth.

[71]
Allah Has Not Delegated His Authority to Anyone:

That is, it is a point of reflection for every person of knowledge and wisdom: is it possible that Allah creates the universe, Allah grants the powers of growth to the earth, Allah sends down rain, Allah provides all the necessities of life to all creatures, but when it comes to the distribution of His sustenance, His bounty, and His mercy among people, then countless false deities appear on the scene? And people begin to think that indeed, everything has been done by Allah alone, but He has delegated the authority of distributing mercy to other personalities and Himself has become free? Can there be any greater injustice and oppression than this?
