I get that Madoka would have to be a fundamental law of the universe
considering that she's overwriting the concepts that the universe is based
upon, but her only wish was that to erase all witches before their creation.
However, somehow, Madoka now suddenly knows everything about the universe,
including how Homura worked hard to save Madoka throughout all those different
timelines. How does she have access to that information? How was she given
vision of the entire universe and all events within if her wish didn't reach
that far? She only had one goal and that's all she wished for, but she was
given sight of the whole universe.

question
madoka-magica
How did Madoka essentially become the universe when all she wished for was to erase the witches before their creation?


It's because it was told to her in _Episode 11_.

Source: [Episode 11 - Summary (6th paragraph)](https://wiki.puella-
magi.net/Episode_11#Summary)

you can also see a transcript of their conversation on that page aswell.

Later on in the episode Madoka leaves the shelter to talk to Kyubey who tells
her that Homura fights because she has hope and if the worst case scenario
occurs Homura can go back in time again. this more or less confirms to Madoka
what Homura has gone though proably already assuming then Homura's been though
a lot due to how she acted when they were together at Homura's Place

Also remember that at the very beginning of the series Madoka had a dream of
the a timeline and it's confirmed later when she meets Homura. one can assume
that Madoka has the knowledge/memories of all the previous timelines inside
her has her karmic destiny builds up but probably not understanding what they
mean at least until she learns about who Homura is

Also her wish did reach all of the universe as her wish was

> to erase all witches from existence before they're even born. Every witch in
> the universe, from the past and the future, with my own hands

which means she is everywhere in the universe from past to future. you could
consider the alternate timelines Homura terminates as apart of the universe
given it is all these timelines that Madoka got her god like power from (as
originally she was a normal Magical Girl)

However if you interrupt the "everything" Madoka knows as being more than her
and Homura's fates then you need to know how Madoka seeks out Witches. My
assumption is that there isn't another system or force guiding her rather
Madoka exists in every moment in history all over the universe observing and
waiting for a witch to appear.

also her perspective of time will no longer be linear like everyone else such
as when 2 Magical Girls become witches, she must exist in both places at the
same time to ensure that there is no chance a Magical Girl becomes a witch as
her wish is to erase Witches _before_ they are born
