Wa 'Ilá As-Samā'i Kayfa Rufi`at

how the heavens are raised up high

Waila aljibali kayfa nusibat

Wa 'Ilá Al-Jibāli Kayfa Nuşibat

how the mountains are set firm

Waila alardi kayfa sutihat

Wa 'Ilá Al-'Arđi Kayfa Suţiĥat

and how the earth is spread out

However, those who turn away and disbelieve

Thumma 'Inna `Alaynā Ĥisābahum

In Our hands are their accounts
