say who is the sustainer of the heavens and the earth? say god. say then do you take for your protectors instead of him such as have it not within their power to bring benefit to or avert harm from themselves? say can the blind and the seeing be deemed equal? or can the depths of darkness and the light be deemed equal? or do they believe that there are side by side with god other divine powers that have created the like of what he creates so that this act of creation appears to them to be similar ? say god is the creator of all things and he is the one who holds absolute sway over all that exists.
قل من رب السماوات والأرض قل الله قل أفاتخذتم من دونه أولياء لا يملكون لأنفسهم نفعا ولا ضرا قل هل يستوي الأعمى والبصير أم هل تستوي الظلمات والنور أم جعلوا لله شركاء خلقوا كخلقه فتشابه الخلق عليهم قل الله خالق كل شيء وهو الواحد القهار
