fa-ʾidhā massa l-ʾinsāna ḍurrun daʿānā thumma ʾidhā khawwalnāhu niʿmatan minnā qāla ʾinnamā ʾūtītuhū ʿalā ʿilmin bal hiya fitnatun wa-lākinna ʾaktharahum yaʿlamūna

When distress befalls man, he supplicates Us. Then, when We grant him a blessing from Us, he says, ‘I was given it by virtue of [my] knowledge.’ Indeed, it is a test, but most of them do not know.
