لو انزلنا هذا القران على جبل لرايته خاشعا متصدعا من خشية الله وتلك الامثال نضربها للناس لعلهم يتفكرون

Had We sent down This Qur-ān on a mountain, Verily, thou wouldst have seen It humble itself and cleave Asunder for fear of God. Such are the similitudes Which We propound to men, That they may reflect.
