أَلَآ إِنَّ لِلَّهِ مَا فِى
ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ ۗ أَلَآ
إِنَّ وَعْدَ ٱللَّهِ حَقٌّ وَلَـٰكِنَّ
أَكْثَرَهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ
هُوَ يُحْىِۦ وَيُمِيتُ
وَإِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُونَ
No doubt, surely,
all that is in the
heavens and the
earth belongs to Allah.
No doubt, surely,
Allah’s promise is true.
But most of them
know not. It is He
Who gives life, and
causes death, and to
Him you (all) shall return
Allah is the Owner of the heavens and earth. His promise is true and is indeed going to be fulfilled. He is the One Who gives life and causes death. To Him is the return of everyone, and He is the One who has the power over that, and the One Who knows everything about every creature; its deterioration, and where every speck of it has gone, be it land, oceans or otherwise.
