We have placed constellations in heaven and have beautified it for beholders, 16 and We have guarded it from every accursed devil: 17 Except the ones who listen on the sly, yet they are chased away by a shooting flame. 18 And the earth We have spread out (like a carpet); set thereon mountains firm and immovable; and produced therein all kinds of things in due balance. 19 And We have made in it means of subsistence for you and for him for whom you are not the suppliers. 20 And there is not of aught but with Us are the treasures thereof, and We send it not down save in a measure known 21 We send the winds fertilizing, and We send down out of heaven water, from which you drink and you are not its treasurers. 22 Truly, it is We who bring to life and We who cause death and We are the inheritor of all things. 23 We know those of you who press forward, and We know the laggards, 24 and it is thy Lord shall muster them, and He is All-wise, All-knowing. 25
