(It is) He who, in six days created the heavens and the earth and all that lies between them, and then He willed to the Throne. The Merciful; ask about Him from he who knows Him. (59)

When it is said to them: 'Prostrate yourselves before the Merciful', they ask: 'And what is the Merciful? Shall we prostrate ourselves to whatever you bid us? ' And it increases their aversion. (60)

Blessed be He who has set the constellations in the heaven, and set amongst them a sun, and an illuminating moon. (61)

It is He who has made the night and day follow each other for those whom He desires to remember or He desires to be thankful. (62)

The worshipers of the Merciful are those who walk humbly on the earth, and when the ignorant address them say: 'Peace, ' (63)

who pass the night prostrating and standing to their Lord. (64)

Who say: 'Our Lord, turn from us the punishment of Gehenna, for its punishment is the most terrible; (65)

it is an evil settling, and an evil residence, ' (66)

who when they spend are neither wasteful nor miserly, between that is a just stand, (67)

who do not call upon another god with Allah, nor slay the soul which Allah has forbidden except by right; who do not fornicate, for he who does this shall face punishment (68)
