أَلَمْ
تَرَ
أَنَّ
اللَّهَ
يُسَبِّحُ
لَهُ
مَن
فِي
السَّمَاوَاتِ
وَالْأَرْضِ
وَالطَّيْرُ
صَافَّاتٍ
كُلٌّ
قَدْ
عَلِمَ
صَلَاتَهُ
وَتَسْبِيحَهُ
وَاللَّهُ
عَلِيمٌ
بِمَا
يَفْعَلُونَ

Have you not regarded that Allah is glorified by everyone in the heavens and the earth, and the birds spreading their wings. Each knows his prayer and glorification, and Allah knows best what they do.
— Ali Quli Qarai
Seest thou not that it is Allah Whose praises all beings in the heavens and on earth do celebrate, and the birds (of the air) with wings outspread? Each one knows its own (mode of) prayer and praise. And Allah knows well all that they do.
