Examples from the Qur'an
And to Him belongs that which reposes by night and by day, and He is the Hearing, the Knowing.
And out of His mercy He made for you the night and the day that you may rest therein and [by day] seek from His bounty and [that] perhaps you will be grateful.
And you lived among the dwellings of those who wronged themselves, and it had become clear to you how We dealt with them. And We presented for you [many] examples."
