In the name of Allah be its course and its anchoring. Indeed, my Lord is Forgiving and Merciful. And they did not appraise Allah the true appraisal, while the earth all together will be His handful on the Day of Resurrection, and the heavens will be folded in His right hand. Exalted is He and high above what they associate with Him.
