وَتَرَى الشَّمْسَ اِذَا طَلَعَتْ تَزَاوَرُ عَنْ كَهْفِهِمْ ذَاتَ الْيَم۪ينِ وَاِذَا غَرَبَتْ تَقْرِضُهُمْ ذَاتَ الشِّمَالِ وَهُمْ ف۪ي فَجْوَةٍ مِنْهُۜ ذٰلِكَ مِنْ اٰيَاتِ اللّٰهِۜ مَنْ يَهْدِ اللّٰهُ فَهُوَ الْمُهْتَدِۚ وَمَنْ يُضْلِلْ فَلَنْ تَجِدَ لَهُ وَلِياًّ مُرْشِداً۟

Watara ashshamsa itha talaAAattazawaru AAan kahfihim thata alyameeni wa-ithagharabat taqriduhum thata ashshimaliwahum fee fajwatin minhu thalika min ayatiAllahi man yahdi Allahu fahuwa almuhtadi waman yudlilfalan tajida lahu waliyyan murshida

(And thou seest the sun: when it rises it inclines away from their cave to the right; and when it sets, it passes away from them on the left — and they in the opening thereof! That is among the proofs of God; whom God guides, he is guided; and whom He sends astray, for him thou wilt find no guiding ally.
