Surah Luqman, verse 32

﴿٣٢﴾

Without diacritics

واذا غشيهم موج كالظلل دعوا الله مخلصين له الدين فلما نجاهم الى البر فمنهم مقتصد وما يجحد باياتنا الا كل ختار كفور

When a wave covers them Like the canopy (of clouds), They call to God Offering Him sincere devotion. But when He has delivered them Safely to land, there are Among them those that halt Between (right and wrong). But none reject Our Signs Except only a perfidious Ungrateful (wretch)!
