    Your Lord is most knowing of you. If He wills, He will have mercy upon you; or if He wills, He will punish you. And We have not sent you, [O Muhammad], over them as a manager.

  • وَمَا هُوَ بِقَوْلِ شَيْطَٰنٍ رَّجِيمٍ

    And the Qur'an is not the word of a devil, expelled [from the heavens].
