a-lam tara anna Allah sakhkhara lakum ma fi al-ard wal-fulk tajri fi al-bahr bi-amrih wa-yumsik as-sama' an taqa'a 'ala al-ard illa bi-idhnih inna Allah bi-an-nas la-ra'uf rahim

Do you not see that Allah has subjected to you whatever is on the earth and the ships which run through the sea by His command? And He restrains the sky from falling upon the earth, unless by His permission. Indeed Allah, to the people, is Kind and Merciful.
