For him there are angels replacing each other, before him and behind him, who guard him under the command of Allah. Surely, Allah does not change what is in a people until they change what is in themselves. And when Allah intends evil for a people, there is no way to turn it back, and for them there is no patron other than Him.

He is the One who makes you see the lightening in fear and hope and forms the heavy clouds.

And the thunder proclaims His purity with His praise, and (so do) the angels, out of His awe. and He sends the thunder-bolts and strikes with it whom He wills. And they are quarrelling about Allah, and He is stern in His plan.

For Him is the prayer in truth. And those who pray to others than Him are not responded to by them at all, but they are like one who stretches his hands towards water so that it may reach his mouth (by itself), while it is not to reach it. And the prayer of the disbelievers does not but go astray.

And to Allah bow in prostration all who are in the heavens and the earth, willingly or unwillingly, and their shadows as well in moms and eves.

Say, "Who is the Lord of the heavens and the earth?" Say, "Allah." Say, 'Have you, then, taken others than Him as protectors who possess no power to cause benefit or harm even to themselves?' Say, Is it that a blind person and a sighted one are equal, or that (all sorts of) the darkness and the light are alike?" Or, have they made partners with Allah who created as He created, and thus the creation seemed to them alike? Say, "Allah is the Creator of all things, and He is the One, the All-Dominant."

He sent down water from the heavens, so the wadis flowed according to their measure, and the flood carried bulging foam. And a similar foam comes up from what they melt in fire to obtain ornaments or other objects. This is how Allah depicts the truth and the untruth. As for the foam, it gets to be thrown away, while that which benefits people remains on the earth. This is how Allah brings out the parables.

For those who obey their Lord there is the best of re-wards. And those who do not obey Him (shall be in a plight that) even if they possess all that is on earth, rather twice as much, they would offer it in ransom. For these there is the worst of reckoning. And their abode is the Hell, and it is an evil bed.

Now, is the one who knows that whatever has been revealed to you from your Lord is the truth, equal to one who is blind? Only the people of understanding respond to the advice

those who fulfill (their) pledge with Allah and do not break the covenant,
