Verily, Allâh is not ashamed to set forth a parable even of a mosquito or so much more when it is bigger (or less when it is smaller) than it. And as for those who believe, they know that it is the Truth from their Lord, but as for those who disbelieve, they say: "What did Allâh intend by this parable?" By it He misleads many, and many He guides thereby. And He misleads thereby only those who are Al-Fâsiqûn (the rebellious, disobedient to Allâh). Baqarah:26

Assalamu alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh;

How did I come to the conclusion that this is the truth from my Lord?

I came to the conclusion that this is the truth from my Lord b/c as a Believer, I believe in these parables- whether they involve large matters or small matters, b/c I know that they are the truth from Allah, and Allah guides the Believers by means of these parables. By means of these parables, Allah guides many from among those of conviction and faith,and adds guidance to their guidance- why? B/c they know and firmly believe in what they know to be true- meaning the parables that Allah sets forth. THIS is the guidance that Allah grants them when He says: "wa yahdi bihi kathira".
