Each word opens its meaning.

﴿١٦٤﴾

Without diacritics

قل اغير الله ابغي ربا وهو رب كل شيء ولا تكسب كل نفس الا عليها ولا تزر وازرة وزر اخرى ثم الى ربكم مرجعكم فينبئكم بما كنتم فيه تختلفون

Say: "Shall I seek For (my) Cherisher Other than God, When He is the Cherisher Of all things (that exist)? Every soul draws the meed Of its acts on none But itself: no bearer Of burdens can bear The burden of another. Your goal in the end Is towards God: He will tell You the truth of the things Wherein ye disputed."
