[Pooya/Ali Commentary 45:12] The oceans encircling the earth are one of the most significant factors of geography. Its salt water is an agent of global sanitation. From the ocean we get means of sustenance of various kinds and other manifold benefits. The ships of all size sail on its waves for commerce and unifying people living on far off lands. They promote human intercourse, and help us to seek the bounties of Allah not only in a commercial but in an intellectual and spiritual sense. All this is by "Allah's command"-by His beneficent ordering and arrangement of the universe, as described in the commentary of verses 3 to 11; and for all His mercy and beneficence we should thank Him.

When our prophet is the last of all the prophets and none to succeed him, Islam brought by him has to be preserved by his Ahl al-Bayt, Divine Lights, and he is a prophet over the universe and he is commanded in (18) above to follow and propagate it to say, all faiths are alike, is contradicting the Text.
