The Holy Quran 35:41 — Surah Fatir

Arabic text

۞ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يُمْسِكُ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ أَن تَزُولَا ۚ وَلَئِن زَالَتَآ إِنْ أَمْسَكَهُمَا مِنْ أَحَدٍ مِّنۢ بَعْدِهِۦٓ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ حَلِيمًا غَفُورًا

Translation

Verily Allaah withholds (stabilizes) the heavens and the earth from moving (from shaking and thereby causing difficulty for people). If they were ever to move, there will be none to withhold them after Him (after He allows them to move). Indeed He is Tolerant, Most Forgiving.

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

The stability of the earth and the heavens: that is, it is the hand of His power that does not let such enormous, mighty celestial bodies move from their centres or shift this way and that from their places and order. And if, supposing, these things were to move from their places, who other than Allah would have the power to keep them under control?
