أَلَمْ
تَرَ
أَنَّ
اللَّهَ
سَخَّرَ
لَكُم
مَّا
فِي
الْأَرْضِ
وَالْفُلْكَ
تَجْرِي
فِي
الْبَحْرِ
بِأَمْرِهِ
وَيُمْسِكُ
السَّمَاءَ
أَن
تَقَعَ
عَلَى
الْأَرْضِ
إِلَّا
بِإِذْنِهِ
إِنَّ
اللَّهَ
بِالنَّاسِ
لَرَءُوفٌ
رَّحِيمٌ

Seest thou not that Allah has made subject to you (men) all that is on the earth, and the ships that sail through the sea by His Command? He withholds the sky (rain) from failing on the earth except by His leave: for Allah is Most Kind and Most Merciful to man.
— Abdullah Yusufali
Have you not regarded that Allah has disposed for you [r benefit] whatever there is in the earth, and [that] the ships sail at sea by His command, and He sustains the sky lest it should fall on the earth, excepting [when it does so] by His leave? Indeed Allah is most kind and merciful to mankind.
