هُوَ الَّذ۪ي يُسَيِّرُكُمْ فِي الْبَرِّ وَالْبَحْرِۜ حَتّٰٓى اِذَا كُنْتُمْ فِي الْفُلْكِۚ وَجَرَيْنَ بِهِمْ بِر۪يحٍ طَيِّبَةٍ وَفَرِحُوا بِهَا جَٓاءَتْهَا ر۪يحٌ عَاصِفٌ وَجَٓاءَهُمُ الْمَوْجُ مِنْ كُلِّ مَكَانٍ وَظَنُّٓوا اَنَّهُمْ اُح۪يطَ بِهِمْۙ دَعَوُا اللّٰهَ مُخْلِص۪ينَ لَهُ الدّ۪ينَۚ لَئِنْ اَنْجَيْتَنَا مِنْ هٰذِه۪ لَنَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الشَّاكِر۪ينَ
