And We sent not (as Our messengers) before thee other than men whom We inspired - Ask the followers of the Remembrance if ye know not

With clear proofs and writings; and We have revealed unto thee the Remembrance that thou mayst explain to mankind that which hath been revealed for them, and that haply they may reflect

Are they who plan ill-deeds then secure that Allah will not cause the earth to swallow them, or that the doom will not come on them whence they know not

Or that He will not seize them in their going to and fro so that there be no escape for them

Or that He will not seize them with a gradual wasting? Lo! thy Lord is indeed Full of Pity, Merciful

Have they not observed all things that Allah hath created, how their shadows incline to the right and to the left, making prostration unto Allah, and they are lowly

And unto Allah maketh prostration whatsoever is in the heavens and whatsoever is in the earth of living creatures, and the angels (also) and they are not proud

They fear their Lord above them, and do what they are bidden

Allah hath said: Choose not two gods. There is only One Allah. So of Me, Me only, be in awe

Unto Him belongeth whatsoever is in the heavens and the earth, and religion is His for ever. Will ye then fear any other than Allah

And whatever of comfort ye enjoy, it is from Allah. Then, when misfortune reacheth you, unto Him ye cry for help

And afterward, when He hath rid you of the misfortune, behold! a set of you attribute partners to their Lord
