And if you ask them as to who has created the heavens and the earth and has subjugated the sun and the moon, they will certainly say, "Allah". How then are they driven aback?

Allah extends provision to whom He wills from His slaves, and straitens it (for whom He wills). Surely Allah knows everything well.

And if you ask them as to who sends down water from the sky, then revives the land with it, they will certainly say, "Allah". Say, "Praise belongs to Allah." But most of them do not understand.

And this worldly life is nothing but an amusement and play, and the Last Abode is the real life indeed. Only if they know!

So when they embark on a ship, they invoke Allah, having their faith purely in Him. But when He saves them (and brings them) to the land, in no time they start committing shirk (ascribing partners to Allah),

so that they be ungrateful for what We gave to them, and so that they may have enjoyment. So, they will soon come to know (the ill-fate of their attitude).

Did they not see that We have made a peaceful sanctuary ( حرَم haram) while (other) people around them are being snatched away? Do they, then, believe in falsity and reject Allah's grace?

And who is more unjust than the one who forges a lie against Allah or belies the truth when it comes to him? Is there not a dwelling in Jahannam for disbelievers?

And those who strive in Our way, We will certainly take them to Our paths, and indeed Allah is with those who are good in deeds.
