Though you see me lesser than yourself in wealth and children, 39 It may be that my Lord will give me [something] better than your garden and will send upon it a calamity from the sky, and it will become a smooth, dusty ground, 40 or its water sinks deep into the ground, so that thou wilt never be able to find it again!" 41 So his fruits were encircled (with ruin).

He is the best in rewarding and the best in respect of the final outcome. 44
