وَأَنزَلْنَا
مِنَ
السَّمَاءِ
مَاءً
بِقَدَرٍ
فَأَسْكَنَّاهُ
فِي
الْأَرْضِ
وَإِنَّا
عَلَى
ذَهَابٍ
بِهِ
لَقَادِرُونَ
wa-ʾanzalnā mina s-samāʾi māʾan bi-qadarin fa-ʾaskannāhu fī l-ʾarḍi wa-ʾinnā ʿalā dhahābin bihī la-qādirūna
And We send down water from the sky according to (due) measure, and We cause it to soak in the soil; and We certainly are able to drain it off (with ease).
— Abdullah Yusufali
We sent down water from the sky in a measured manner, and We lodged it within the ground, and We are indeed able to take it away.
