Verses 1–3 of 3
God! There is no god But He,—the Living, The Self-subsisting, Eternal. No slumber can seize Him Nor sleep. His are all things In the heavens and on earth. Who is there can intercede In His presence except As He permitteth? He knoweth What (appeareth to His creatures As) Before or After Or Behind them. Nor shall they compass Aught of His knowledge Except as He willeth. His Throne doth extend Over the heavens And the earth, and He feeleth No fatigue in guarding, And preserving them For He is the Most High, The Supreme (in glory).
Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:255God! There is no god But He,—the Living, The Self-Subsisting, Eternal.
Surah Ali 'Imran, verse 3:2(All) faces shall be humbled Before (Him)—the Living, The Self-Subsisting, Eternal: Hopeless indeed will be The man that carries Iniquity (on his back).
