(Lo! I have put my trust in Allah) I consign my matter to Allah, (my Lord) my Creator and Provider (and your Lord) your Creator and Provider. (Not an animal but He doth grasp it by the forelock!) He makes die and brings back to life; it is also said that this means: they are all in His grip, He does what He will (Lo! my Lord is on a straight path) upon which people must tread; it is also said that means: He calls on to a straight path: an established religion with which He is pleased, i.e. Islam.
