24. The likeness of the life of the present is as the rain which We send down from the
skies: by its mingling arises the produce of the earth- which provides food for men and
animals: (It grows) till the earth is clad with its golden ornaments and is decked out (in
beauty): the people to whom it belongs think they have all powers of disposal over it:
There reaches it Our command by night or by day, and We make it like a harvest clean-
mown, as if it had not flourished only the day before! thus do We explain the Signs in
detail for those who reflect.
