أَلَمْ تَرَ إِلَى رَبِّکَ کَیْفَ مَدَّ الظِّلَّ وَلَوْ شَاءَ لَجَعَلَهُ سَاکِناً ثُمَّ جَعَلْنَا الشَّمْسَ عَلَیْهِ دَلِیل(( 45 ))

45- DID YOU SEE HOW YOUR LORD EXPANDED THE SHADOW? HAD HE WILLED HE WOULD HAVE MADE IT STILL THEN WE MADE THE SUN A GUIDE OVER IT.

ثُمَّ قَبَضْنَاهُ إِلَیْنَا قَبْضاً یَسِیر(( 46 ))

46- THEN WE COLLECTED IT TOWARDS US EASILY.

وَهُوَ الَّذِى جَعَلَ لَکُمُ الَّیْلَ لِبَاساً وَالنَّوْمَ سُبَاتاً وَجَعَلَ النَّهَارَ نُشُور(( 47 ))

47- AND IT IS HE WHO HAS MADE THE NIGHT A CLOTHING FOR YOU, AND SLEEP A REST, AND MADE THE DAY A RESURRECTION.

وَهُوَ الَّذِى أَرْسَلَ الرِّیَاحَ بُشْراً بَیْنَ یَدَىْ رَحْمَتِهِ وَأَنزَلْنَا مِنْ السَّمَاءِ مَاءً طَهُور(( 48 ))

48- AND IT IS HE WHO SENT THE WINDS AS GLAD-TIDINGS BEFORE HIS MERCY, AND WE SENT DOWN FROM THE SKY PURIFYING WATER.

لِنُحْیِىَ بِهِ بَلْدَةً مَّیْتاً وَنُسْقِیَهُ مِمَّا خَلَقْنَا أَنْعَاماً وَأَنَاسِىَّ کَثِیر(( 49 ))

49- SO AS TO REVIVE A DEAD LAND BY IT, AND GIVE IT TO DRINK TO WHAT WE CREATED OF CATTLE, AND SO MANY MANKIND.

وَلَقَدْ صَرَّفْنَاهُ بَیْنَهُمْ لِیَذَّکَّرُوا فَأَبَى أَکْثَرُ النَّاسِ إِلاَّ کُفُور(( 50 ))

50- AND VERILY WE CIRCULATED IT (QURÄN) AMONG THEM IN ORDER TO BECOME MINDFUL, YET MOST OF THE PEOPLE REFUSED ALL, EXCEPT DENIAL.
