there was an informative programme on ummah channel last night on the topic of ilm al-ghayb. mawlana munawwar husain bukhari was the host, as he regularly is; and qari tayyib of manchester and mawlana yunus mibahi of preston were the guests. mawlana yunus gave a nice interpretation of the hadith: i got to know everything in the skies/heavens and the earth. --- he said that the law al-mahfuz is also in the skies/heavens and it contains ma kan wa ma yakun; hence, these hadiths are another proof for our mawqif.
