Part 1 (AYAT-AL-KURSI)

ٱللَّهُ لَآ إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا هُ:وَ ٱلۡحَىُّ ٱلۡقَيُّومُ‌ۚ لَا تَأۡخُذُهُ ۥ سِنَةٌ۬ وَلَا نَوۡمٌ۬‌ۚ لَّهُ ۥ مَا فِى ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٲتِ وَمَا فِى ٱلۡأَرۡضِ‌ۗ مَن ذَا ٱلَّذِى يَشۡفَعُ عِندَهُ ۥۤ إِلَّا بِإِذۡنِهِۦ‌ۚ يَعۡلَمُ مَا بَيۡنَ أَيۡدِيهِمۡ وَمَا خَلۡفَهُمۡ‌ۖ وَلَا يُحِيطُونَ بِشَىۡءٍ۬ مِّنۡ عِلۡمِهِۦۤ إِلَّا بِمَا شَآءَ‌ۚ وَسِعَ كُرۡسِيُّهُ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٲتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضَ‌ۖ وَلَا يَـُٔودُهُ ۥ حِفۡظُهُمَا‌ۚ وَهُوَ ٱلۡعَلِىُّ ٱلۡعَظِيمُ۔ (سورہٴ البقرہ: ۲۵۵)

"ALLAH: THERE IS NO GOD BUT HE, THE ALIVE, THE ALL-SUSTAINING. NEITHER DOZE OVERTAKES HIM NOR SLEEP. TO HIM BELONGS WHAT IS IN THE HEAVENS AND WHAT IS ON THE EARTH. WHO CAN INTERCEDE WITH HIM WITHOUT HIS PERMISSION? HE KNOWS WHAT IS BEFORE THEM AND WHAT IS BEHIND THEM. ANY THEY ENCOMPASS NOTHING OF HIS KNOWLEDGE EXCEPT WHAT HE WILLS. HIS KURSI (CHAIR) EXTENDS TO THE HEAVENS AND TO THE EARTH, AND IT DOES NOT WEARY HIM TO LOOK AFTER THEM. AND HE IS THE HIGH, THE SUPREME." (SURAH AL-BAQARAH: 255)
