In the Quran

قُلْ هُوَ ٱلْقَادِرُ عَلَىٰٓ أَن يَبْعَثَ عَلَيْكُمْ عَذَابًۭا مِّن فَوْقِكُمْ أَوْ مِن تَحْتِ أَرْجُلِكُمْ أَوْ يَلْبِسَكُمْ شِيَعًۭا وَيُذِيقَ بَعْضَكُم بَأْسَ بَعْضٍ ۗ ٱنظُرْ كَيْفَ نُصَرِّفُ ٱلْءَايَٰتِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَفْقَهُونَ

کہہ دو کہ وہ (اس پر بھی) قدرت رکھتا ہے کہ تم پر اوپر کی طرف سے یا تمہارے پاؤں کے نیچے سے عذاب بھیجے یا تمہیں فرقہ فرقہ کردے اور ایک کو دوسرے (سے لڑا کر آپس) کی لڑائی کا مزہ چکھادے۔ دیکھو ہم اپنی آیتوں کو کس کس طرح بیان کرتے ہیں تاکہ یہ لوگ سمجھیں

Say: He is able to send punishment upon you from above you or from beneath your feet, or to bewilder you with dissension and make you taste the tyranny one of another. See how We display the revelations so that they may understand.
