“Allah, there is no god but Him. The Living One, Who continuously takes care of (His creatures), does not sleep and does not sleep. To Him belongs what is in the heavens and what is in the earth. No one can intercede on His side without His permission. He knows what is before them and what is behind them, and they know nothing of His knowledge except what He wills. His seat covers the heavens and the earth. And He does not find it difficult to maintain both, and He is Most High, Most Great.” (QS 2:255)
