We have set constellations in the heavens and made them pleasing to the beholders, 16 and have protected them against every accursed satan 17 Save him who stealeth the hearing, and him there followeth a flame gleaming. 18 And We spread out the earth, and placed mountains as anchors in it, and in it grew all things by a proper measure. 19 and there appointed for you is a livelihood, and for those you do not provide. 20 And there is not a thing but that with Us are its depositories, and We do not send it down except according to a known measure. 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 It is We who give life and We who give death, and We are the One who will abide. 23 And We have already known the preceding [generations] among you, and We have already known the later [ones to come]. 24 And verily, your Lord will gather them together. Truly, He is All-Wise, All-Knowing. 25
