Aakhizeena maaa aataahum Rabbuhum; innahum kaanoo qabla zaalika muhsineen

وَفِىٓ أَنفُسِكُمْ ۚ أَفَلَا تُبْصِرُونَ
Wa feee anfusikum; afalaa tubsiroon
and also in your own selves. Do you not see?
وَفِى ٱلسَّمَآءِ رِزْقُكُمْ وَمَا تُوعَدُونَ
Wa fissamaaa'i rizqukum wa maa too'adoon
And in heaven is your provision and also what you are being promised.
