And We have placed within the heaven great stars and have beautified it for the observers. 16 and have protected them against every accursed satan 17 Except one who steals a hearing and is pursued by a clear burning flame. 18 We have spread out the earth and set upon it firm mountains. Everything We have caused to grow therein is justly weighed; 19 And We have made for you therein means of living and [for] those for whom you are not providers. 20 There is not a thing but its storehouses are with Us. But We only send down each thing in an appropriate measure: 21 And We send the fecundating winds, then cause the rain to descend from the sky, therewith providing you with water (in abundance), though ye are not the guardians of its stores. 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 And indeed We know those among you who came forward and indeed We know those among you who remained behind. 24 Your Lord will resurrect them all; He is All-wise and All-knowing. 25
