Allah reminds us of the creating of the higher and lower worlds,

[وَالسَّمَآءَ بَنَيْنَـهَا]

(We constructed the heaven.) meaning, `We made it as a high roof, protected from falling,'

[بِأَيْدٍ]

(with Hands), meaning, with strength, according to `Abdullah bin `Abbas, Mujahid, Qatadah, Ath-Thawri and several others,

[وَإِنَّا لَمُوسِعُونَ]

(Verily, We are able to extend the vastness of space thereof.) means, `We made it vast and We brought its roof higher without pillars to support it, and thus it is hanging independently.'

[وَالاٌّرْضَ فَرَشْنَـهَا]

(And We have made the earth a Firash), meaning, `We have made it a resting place for the created,'

[فَنِعْمَ الْمَـهِدُونَ]

(how excellent a spreader (thereof) are We!), meaning, `We spread it for its inhabitants,'

[وَمِن كُلِّ شَىْءٍ خَلَقْنَا زَوْجَيْنِ]

(And of everything We have created pairs,) meaning, all the created are in pairs, the heaven and earth, night and day, sun and moon, land and sea, light and darkness, faith and disbelief, death and life, misery and happiness, Paradise and Fire, in addition to the animals and plants. The statement of Allah the Exalted,

[لَعَلَّكُمْ تَذَكَّرُونَ]

(that you may remem- ber.) and know that the Creator, Allah, is One without partners,

[فَفِرُّواْ إِلَى اللَّهِ]

(So, flee to Allah.) meaning, seek shelter with Him and trust in Him in all of your affairs,

[إِنِّى لَكُمْ مِّنْهُ نَذِيرٌ مُّبِينٌوَلاَ تَجْعَلُواْ مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلَـهاً ءَاخَرَ]

(Verily, I am a plain warner to you from Him. And set not up any other god along with Allah.) do not associate any partners with Him,

[إِنِّى لَكُمْ مِّنْهُ نَذِيرٌ مُّبِينٌ]

(Verily, I am a plain warner to you from Him.)

[كَذَلِكَ مَآ أَتَى الَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ مِّن رَّسُولٍ إِلاَّ قَالُواْ سَـحِرٌ أَوْ مَجْنُونٌ - أَتَوَاصَوْاْ بِهِ بَلْ هُمْ قَوْمٌ طَـغُونَ - فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ فَمَآ أَنتَ بِمَلُومٍ - وَذَكِّرْ فَإِنَّ الذِّكْرَى تَنفَعُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ - وَمَا خَلَقْتُ الْجِنَّ وَالإِنسَ إِلاَّ لِيَعْبُدُونِ - مَآ أُرِيدُ مِنْهُم مِّن رِّزْقٍ وَمَآ أُرِيدُ أَن يُطْعِمُونِ - إِنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ الرَّزَّاقُ ذُو الْقُوَّةِ الْمَتِينُ - فَإِنَّ لِلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُواْ ذَنُوباً مِّثْلَ ذَنُوبِ أَصْحَـبِهِمْ فَلاَ يَسْتَعْجِلُونِ - فَوَيْلٌ لِّلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ مِن يَوْمِهِمُ الَّذِى يُوعَدُونَ ]

(52. Likewise, no Messenger came to those before them but they said: "A sorcerer or a madman!'') (53. Have they transmitted this saying to these Nay, they are themselves a people transgressing beyond bounds!) (54. So turn away from them, you are not blameworthy.) (55. And remind, for verily, the reminding profits the believers.) (56. And I created not the Jinn and mankind except that they should worship Me.) (57. I seek not any provision from them nor do I ask that they should feed Me.) (58. Verily, Allah is the All-Provider, Owner of power, the Most Strong.) (59. And verily, for those who do wrong, there is a portion of torment like to the evil portion of torment (which came for) their likes (of old); so let them not ask Me to hasten on!) (60. Then woe to those who disbelieve from their Day which they have been promised.)
