them in secret:

10. Then I said, Ask forgiveness of your Lord, surely He is the most Forgiving:

11. He will send down upon you the cloud, pouring down abundance of rain:

12. And help you with wealth and sons, and make for you gardens, and make for you rivers.

13. What is the matter with you that you fear not the greatness of Allah?

14. And indeed He has created you through various grades:

15. Do you not see how Allah has created the seven heavens one above another,

16. And made the moon therein a light, and made the sun a lamp?

17. And Allah has made you grow out of the earth as a growth:

18. Then He returns you to it, then will He bring you forth a (new) bringing forth:

19. And Allah has made for you the earth a wide expanse,

20. That you may go along therein in wide opaths.

Section 2

22. And they have planned a very great plan.
