Translation of Verse 10-21

10. He is the One Who sends down rain from the sky, from which you drink and by which plants grow for your cattle to graze.

11. With it He produces for you ˹various˺ crops, olives, palm trees, grapevines, and every type of fruit. Surely in this is a sign for those who reflect.

12. And He has subjected for your benefit the day and the night, the sun and the moon. And the stars have been subjected by His command. Surely in this are signs for those who understand.

13. And ˹He subjected˺ for you whatever He has created on earth of varying colours. 496 Surely in this is a sign for those who are mindful.

14. And He is the One Who has subjected the sea, so from it you may eat tender seafood and extract ornaments to wear. And you see the ships ploughing their way through it, so you may seek His bounty and give thanks ˹to Him˺.

15. He has placed into the earth firm mountains, so it does not shake with you, as well as rivers, and pathways so you may find your way.

16. Also by landmarks and stars do people find their way.

17. Can the One Who creates be equal to those who do not? Will you not then be mindful?

18. If you tried to count Allah's blessings, you would never be able to number them. Surely Allah is All- Forgiving, Most Merciful.

19. And Allah knows what you conceal and what you reveal.

20. But those ˹idols˺ they invoke besides Allah cannot create anything-they themselves are created.

21. They are dead, not alive-not even knowing when their followers will be resurrected.


Commentary

496. The verse refers to the diverse creatures that have been created for the service of humanity.
