اللَّهُ
الَّذِي
رَفَعَ
السَّمَاوَاتِ
بِغَيْرِ
عَمَدٍ
تَرَوْنَهَا
ثُمَّ
اسْتَوَى
عَلَى
الْعَرْشِ
وَسَخَّرَ
الشَّمْسَ
وَالْقَمَرَ
كُلٌّ
يَجْرِي
لِأَجَلٍ
مُّسَمًّى
يُدَبِّرُ
الْأَمْرَ
يُفَصِّلُ
الْآيَاتِ
لَعَلَّكُم
بِلِقَاءِ
رَبِّكُمْ
تُوقِنُونَ

It is Allah who raised the heavens without any pillars that you see, and then presided over the Throne. He disposed the sun and the moon, each moving for a specified term. He directs the command, [and] elaborates the signs that you may be certain of encountering your Lord.
— Ali Quli Qarai
Allah is He Who raised the heavens without any pillars that ye can see; is firmly established on the throne (of authority); He has subjected the sun and the moon (to his Law)! Each one runs (its course) for a term appointed. He doth regulate all affairs, explaining the signs in detail, that ye may believe with certainty in the meeting with your Lord.
