The Prophets
IN THE NAME OF GOD, THE MOST GRACIOUS, THE DISPENSER OF GRACE[21:112]
Say: "O my Sustainer! Judge Thou in truth!" – and [say]: "Our Sustainer is the Most Gracious, the One whose aid is ever to be sought against all your [attempts at] defining [Him]!"

* v.112 : See note 5 on verse 4 of this sūrah.
* Lit., “against (‘alā) all that you attribute [to Him] by way of description” or “of definition” (see note 88 on the last sentence of 6:100): implying that only God’s grace can save man from the blasphemous attempts – prompted by his inherent weakness – to bring God “closer” to his own, human understanding by means of humanly-conceived “definitions” of Him who is transcendent, infinite, and unfathomable.
