2مِن شَرِّ ما خَلَقَGeorge Salethat He may deliver me from the mischief of those things which He hath created1;From the mischief of those things which He hath created;] i.e. From the mischiefs proceeding either from the perverseness and evil choice of those beings which have a power to choose, or the natural effects of necessary agents, as fire, poison, & c. the world being good in the whole, ehough evils may follow from those two causes (Al Beidawi.)
