5

He sends down water from the cloud, then watercoursesflow (with water) according to their measure, and thetorrent bears along the swelling foam, and from what theymelt in the fire for the sake of making ornaments orapparatus arises a scum like it; thus does Allah comparetruth and falsehood; then as for the scum, it passes away asa worthless thing; and as for that which profits the people,it tarries in the earth; thus does Allah set forth parables.
