أَلَمْ
تَرَ
كَيْفَ
ضَرَبَ
اللَّهُ
مَثَلًا
كَلِمَةً
طَيِّبَةً
كَشَجَرَةٍ
طَيِّبَةٍ
أَصْلُهَا
ثَابِتٌ
وَفَرْعُهَا
فِي
السَّمَاءِ

Seest thou not how Allah sets forth a parable? - A goodly word like a goodly tree, whose root is firmly fixed, and its branches (reach) to the heavens,- of its Lord. So Allah sets forth parables for men, in order that they may receive admonition.
— Abdullah Yusufali
Have you not regarded how Allah has drawn a parable? A good word is like a good tree: its roots are steady and its branches are in the sky.
