الا انهم يثنون صدورهم ليستخفوا منه الا حين يستغشون ثيابهم يعلم ما يسرون وما يعلنون انه عليم بذات الصدور

Behold! they fold up Their hearts, that they may lie Hid from Him! Ah! even When they cover themselves With their garments, He knoweth What they conceal, and what They reveal: for He knoweth Well the (inmost secrets) Of the hearts
