اهم يقسمون رحمت ربك نحن قسمنا بينهم معيشتهم في الحياة الدنيا ورفعنا بعضهم فوق بعض درجات ليتخذ بعضهم بعضا سخريا ورحمت ربك خير مما يجمعون

Is it they who would portion out The Mercy of thy Lord? It is We Who portion out Between them their livelihood In the life of this world: And We raise some of them Above others in ranks, So that some may command Work from others. But the Mercy of thy Lord Is better than the (wealth) Which they amass.
