Commentary
We extended it, and we made it firm as mountains, stable. If it were not for them, it would have toppled from every pair of every delightful kind that one rejoices in for its beauty. A reminder and a lesson for every servant who turns back to his Lord, reflecting on the wonders of His creation. It has also been recited: 'a reminder and a lesson' in the nominative, meaning: 'He created it as a reminder.'
