God in ayah 16 of surah Qāf says, “And We are nearer to him than his jugular vein.” It means Allah is present always and everywhere. He hears our voice and is aware of our innermost secrets. He knows our intentions, but we are unable to sense His presence. Our sins and indecent acts and our wicked intentions and bad morals cause us to forget God. These pollutions make a thick curtain over our heart and deprive us from seeing the realities.
