والله جعل لكم مما خلق ظلالا وجعل لكم من الجبال اكنانا وجعل لكم سرابيل تقيكم الحر وسرابيل تقيكم باسكم كذلك يتم نعمته عليكم لعلكم تسلمون

It is God Who made. Out of the things He created, Some things to give you shade; Of the hills He made some For your shelter; He made you Garments to protect you From heat, and coats of mail To protect you from Your (mutual) violence. Thus does He complete His favours on you, that Ye may bow to His Will (In Islām).
