ما كان الله ليذر المؤمنين على ما انتم عليه حتى يميز الخبيث من الطيب وما كان الله ليطلعكم على الغيب ولكن الله يجتبي من رسله من يشاء فامنوا بالله ورسله وان تؤمنوا وتتقوا فلكم اجر عظيم

God will not leave The Believers in the state In which ye are now, Until He separates What is evil From what is good. Nor will He disclose To you the secrets Of the Unseen, But He chooses Of His Apostles (For the purpose) Whom He pleases. So believe in God And His Apostles: And if ye believe And do right, Ye have a reward Without measure.
