Word by word

ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ سَبْعَ سَمَـٰوَٰتٍ وَمِنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ مِثْلَهُنَّ يَتَنَزَّلُ ٱلْأَمْرُ بَيْنَهُنَّ لِتَعْلَمُوٓا۟ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ قَدِيرٌ وَأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ قَدْ أَحَاطَ بِكُلِّ شَىْءٍ عِلْمًۢا

It is Allāh who has created seven heavens and of the earth, the like of them. [His] command descends among them so you may know that Allāh is over all things competent and that Allāh has encompassed all things in knowledge.

الله وحده هو الذي خلق سبع سموات، وخلق سبعًا من الأرَضين، وأنزل الأمر مما أوحاه الله إلى رسله وما يدبِّر به خلقه بين السموات والأرض؛ لتعلموا -أيها الناس- أن الله على كل شيء قدير لا يعجزه شيء، وأن الله قد أحاط بكل شيء علمًا، فلا يخرج شيء عن علمه وقدرته.
