The Holy Quran 40:64 — Surah Ghafir
Arabic text
ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِى جَعَلَ لَكُمُ ٱلْأَرْضَ قَرَارًا وَٱلسَّمَآءَ بِنَآءً وَصَوَّرَكُمْ فَأَحْسَنَ صُوَرَكُمْ وَرَزَقَكُم مِّنَ ٱلطَّيِّبَـٰتِ ۚ ذَٰلِكُمُ ٱللَّهُ رَبُّكُمْ ۖ فَتَبَارَكَ ٱللَّهُ رَبُّ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ
Translation
It is Allaah Who made the earth a stable abode for you, and the sky a roof (like a dome). (It is He) Who fashioned you, beautified your appearances, and sustained you with pure things (pure foods). This is Allaah, your Rabb. So Blessed is Allaah, the Rabb of the universe.
Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani
that is, He made it like a dome. The form of man is the best: man’s form is better than that of all the animals, and his provision is purer than the provision of all [others].
