10 Preface أَم لَهُم مُلكُ السَّماواتِ وَالأَرضِ وَما بَينَهُما ۖ فَليَرتَقوا فِي الأَسبابِYusuf AliOr have they the dominion of the heavens and the earth and all between? If so, let them mount up1 with the ropes and means (to reach that end)!Weak and puny creatures though they are, they dare to raise their heads against the Omnipotent, as if they had dominion over Creation and not He! If they had any power, let them mount up to heaven and use all the means they have to that end, and see how they can frustrate God’s Purpose!
