In this way We have tested some by means of others, so those ˹disbelievers˺ may say, “Has Allah favoured these ˹poor believers˺ out of all of us?” Does Allah not best recognize the grateful?

ﱒAnd whenﱓcome to youﱔthose whoﱕbelieveﱖin Our Versesﱗthen sayﱘPeaceﱙﱚ(be) upon youﱛ(Has) Prescribedﱜyour LordﱝuponﱞHimselfﱟthe Mercyﱠthat heﱡwhoﱢdoesﱣamong youﱤevilﱥin ignoranceﱦthenﱧrepentsﱨfromﱩafter itﱪand reformsﱫthen, indeed Heﱬ(is) Oft-ForgivingﱭMost Mercifulﱮ
When the believers in Our revelations come to you, say, “Peace be upon you! Your Lord has taken upon Himself to be Merciful. Whoever among you commits evil ignorantly ˹or recklessly˺ then repents afterwards and mends their ways, then Allah is truly All-Forgiving, Most Merciful.”

Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Indeed, I stand on a clear proof from my Lord—yet you have denied it. That ˹torment˺ you seek to hasten is not within my power. It is only Allah Who decides ˹its time˺. He declares the truth. And He is the Best of Judges.”

With Him are the keys of the unseen—no one knows them except Him. And He knows what is in the land and sea. Not even a leaf falls without His knowledge, nor a grain in the darkness of the earth or anything—green or dry—but is ˹written˺ in a perfect Record.
