Wa lahoo maa sakana fillaili wannahaar; wa Huwas Samee'ul Aleem

Translation

And to Him belongs that which reposes by night and by day, and He is the Hearing, the Knowing.

Verse interpretation (Tafsir)

To Allah alone belongs dominion of everything. Whatever rests hidden in the night and whatever moves about openly in the day are all His servants and His creation: they are all under His domination and control. He hears their statements and knows their actions, and will judge by them.
