Indeed, in the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the alternation of the night and the day, and the [great] ships which sail through the sea with that which benefits people, and what Allāh has sent down from the heavens of rain, giving life thereby to the earth after its lifelessness and dispersing therein every [kind of] moving creature, and [His] directing of the winds and the clouds controlled between the heaven and earth are signs for a people who use reason.
In the creation of the heavens and earth, the alternation of night and day, are signs for those who think.

A man was walking along a road and became extremely thirsty. He found a well, climbed down, drank, and climbed out. He then saw a dog panting and licking the moist earth from thirst. The man said: This dog is as thirsty as I was. He climbed back down, filled his shoe with water, held it in his mouth as he climbed out, and gave the dog to drink. Allah was grateful and forgave him.
