Reflect on today's verse
Today's theme is creation. Read the verse slowly, once in Arabic and once in translation, then take a minute with this question:
Step outside or look up today: what in creation reminds you of its Creator?
One verse a day, read with attention, adds up: the most beloved deeds to Allah are the most consistent, even if small (Sahih al-Bukhari 6464).
