And indeed, We have put the big stars in the heaven and We beautified it for the beholders. 16 And We have preserved it from every accursed devil, 17 Save him who stealeth the hearing, and him there followeth a flame gleaming. 18 And the earth We spread out, and placed therein firm mountains, and caused to grow therein all kinds of things in due proportion. 19 And created livelihoods for you in it, and created those for whom you do not provide the sustenance. 20 With Us is the source of everything and We do not send it down except in a known quantity. 21 We send impregnating winds and send down water from the sky for you to drink and you have no (control over its) storage. 22 Lo! and it is We, even We, Who quicken and give 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 Indeed your Lord will gather them all together. Surely He is All-Wise, All-Knowing. 25
