Al-Anfal 8:11 اذ يغشيكم النعاس امنة منه وينزل عليكم من السماء ماء ليطهركم به ويذهب عنكم رجز الشيطان وليربط على قلوبكم ويثبت به الاقدام ١١
إِذۡ

ٱلنُّعَاسَ
أَمَنَةٗ
مِّنۡهُ
وَيُنَزِّلُ
عَلَيۡكُم

ٱلسَّمَآءِ
مَآءٗ
لِّيُطَهِّرَكُم
بِهِۦ
وَيُذۡهِبَ
عَنكُمۡ
رِجۡزَ
ٱلشَّيۡطَٰنِ
وَلِيَرۡبِطَ
عَلَىٰ
قُلُوبِكُمۡ
وَيُثَبِّتَ
بِهِ
ٱلۡأَقۡدَامَ
