It is We Who have set out the zodiacal signs in the heavens, and made them fair-seeming to (all) beholders; 16 And We have guarded it (near heaven) from every outcast Shaitan (devil). 17 Save him who stealeth the hearing, and him there followeth a flame gleaming. 18 We have spread out the earth, and set upon it firm mountains and caused everything to grow in due proportion. 19 We have provided therein a means of livelihood for you and for all those creatures for whom you do not provide. 20 With Us is the source of everything and We do not send it down except in a known quantity. 21 And We sent the winds that relieve the clouds’ burden, therefore caused water to descend from the sky, then give it to you to drink; and you are not at all its treasurers. 22 for, behold, it is We - We alone - who grant life and deal death, and it is We alone who shall remain after all else will have passed away! 23 We know the ones of you who press forward, and We know the laggards; 24 Assuredly it is thy Lord Who will gather them together: for He is perfect in Wisdom and Knowledge. 25
