164 Preface وَما مِنّا إِلّا لَهُ مَقامٌ مَعلومٌYusuf Ali(Those ranged in ranks say):1 “Not one of us but has a place appointed;To round off the argument of the Sūra we go back to the idea with which it began. Those who range themselves in ranks for the united service of God (see above, 37:1 and n. 4031)?whether angels or men of God?are content to keep their ranks and do whatever service is assigned to them. It is not for them to question God’s Plan, because they know that it is good and that it will ultimately triumph. Any seeming delays or defeats do not worry them. Nor do they ever break their ranks.
