(57:1) Whatever is in the heavens and earth exalts Allah, and He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise. (57:2) His is the dominion of the heavens and earth. He gives life and causes death, and He is over all things competent. (57:3) He is the First and the Last, the Ascendant and the Intimate, and He is, of all things, Knowing. (57:4) It is He who created the heavens and earth in six days and then established Himself above the Throne. He knows what penetrates into the earth and what emerges from it and what descends from the heaven and what ascends therein; and He is with you wherever you are. And Allah, of what you do, is Seeing. (57:5) His is the dominion of the heavens and earth. And to Allah are returned [all] matters. (57:6) He causes the night to enter the day and causes the day to enter the night, and he is Knowing of that within the breasts. (57:7) Believe in Allah and His Messenger and spend out of that in which He has made you successors. For those who have believed among you and spent, there will be a great reward.
