إِنَّ الَّذينَ يَخشَونَ رَبَّهُم بِالغَيبِ لَهُم مَغفِرَةٌ وَأَجرٌ كَبيرٌ

For those who fear their Lord unseen, for them is forgiveness and a grand reward.

وَأَسِرّوا قَولَكُم أَوِ اجهَروا بِهِ ۖ إِنَّهُ عَليمٌ بِذاتِ الصُّدورِ

Whether you conceal your words or declare them, He knows the secrets of the hearts.

أَلا يَعلَمُ مَن خَلَقَ وَهُوَ اللَّطيفُ الخَبيرُ

Wouldn’t He know, He who created? He is the Kind, the Expert.

هُوَ الَّذي جَعَلَ لَكُمُ الأَرضَ ذَلولًا فَامشوا في مَناكِبِها وَكُلوا مِن رِزقِهِ ۖ وَإِلَيهِ النُّشورُ

It is He who made the earth manageable for you. So traverse its tracks and eat from His provision. To Him is the resurgence.

أَأَمِنتُم مَن فِي السَّماءِ أَن يَخسِفَ بِكُمُ الأَرضَ فَإِذا هِيَ تَمورُ

Are you certain that the One in the heavens won’t cause the earth to swallow you as it shakes?

وَلَقَد كَذَّبَ الَّذينَ مِن قَبلِهِم فَكَيفَ كانَ نَكيرِ

Those before them also denied. So, how was My condemnation?

أَوَلَم يَرَوا إِلَى الطَّيرِ فَوقَهُم صافّاتٍ وَيَقبِضنَ ۚ ما يُمسِكُهُنَّ إِلَّا الرَّحمـٰنُ ۚ إِنَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَيءٍ بَصيرٌ

Don’t they see the birds above them, spreading and folding their wings? None holds them up except the Merciful. He is watchful over all things.

أَمَّن هـٰذَا الَّذي هُوَ جُندٌ لَكُم يَنصُرُكُم مِن دونِ الرَّحمـٰنِ ۚ إِنِ الكافِرونَ إِلّا في غُرورٍ

Who could be an army to aid you, other than the Most Merciful? The unbelievers are in nothing but delusion.

أَمَّن هـٰذَا الَّذي يَرزُقُكُم إِن أَمسَكَ رِزقَهُ ۚ بَل لَجّوا في عُتُوٍّ وَنُفورٍ

Who will sustain you if He withholds His provision? Yet, they persist in defiance and aversion.

أَفَمَن يَمشي مُكِبًّا عَلىٰ وَجهِهِ أَهدىٰ أَمَّن يَمشي سَوِيًّا عَلىٰ صِراطٍ مُستَقيمٍ

Who is better guided: the one who walks face down, or the one who walks upright on a straight path?
