And indeed We created towers in the skies, and beautified it for the beholders. 16 And We guard it against every accursed Shaitan, 17 But he who steals a hearing, so there follows him a visible flame. 18 And the earth! We have stretched it out and have cast thereon mountains firm, and We have caused to spring up thereon everything weighed. 19 And we have given unto you livelihoods therein, and unto those for whom ye provide not. 20 There is nothing except that its treasuries are with Us and We do not send it down except in a known measure. 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 And indeed, it is We who give life and cause death, and We are the Inheritor. 23 And We have already known the preceding [generations] among you, and We have already known the later [ones to come]. 24 and, behold, it is thy Sustainer who will gather them all together [on Judgment Day]: verily, He is Wise, All-Knowing! 25
