Surah Ali 'Imran — 3:109

وَلِلَّهِ مَا فِى ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَمَا فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ ۚ وَإِلَى ٱللَّهِ تُرْجَعُ ٱلْأُمُورُ

Wa lillaahi maa fissamaawaati wa maa fil ard; wa ilal laahi turja;ul umoor

Göklerde olanlar da, yerde olanlar da Allah'ındır. İşler Allah'a varacaktır.

To God belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth, and to God all matters return.

Reflection

Placed straight after the statement that God wills no injustice, this line reads as its grounds, and commentators drew the argument out: wrongdoing comes from need, or from reaching into what belongs to someone else, and neither can apply to the one who owns everything. The name God is repeated where a pronoun would have served, which keeps both halves, the owning and the returning, pinned explicitly to him.
