leaving the earth level and bare,

20:107

He ˹fully˺ knows what is ahead of them and what is behind them,1 but they cannot encompass Him in ˹their˺ knowledge.2

But whoever does good and is a believer will have no fear of being wronged or denied ˹their reward˺.

And so We have sent it down as an Arabic Quran and varied the warnings in it, so perhaps they will shun evil or it may cause them to be mindful.
