Surah Az-Zukhruf (The Ornaments of Gold), Verse 32

اَهُمْ یَقْسِمُوْنَ رَحْمَتَ رَبِّكَ نَحْنُ قَسَمْنَا بَیْنَهُمْ مَّعِیْشَتَهُمْ فِی الْحَیٰوةِ الدُّنْیَا وَرَفَعْنَا بَعْضَهُمْ فَوْقَ بَعْضٍ دَرَجٰتٍ لِّیَتَّخِذَ بَعْضُهُمْ بَعْضًا سُخْرِیًّا وَرَحْمَتُ رَبِّكَ خَیْرٌ مِّمَّا یَجْمَعُوْنَ ۟

A hum yaqsimoona rahmata Rabbik; Nahnu qasamnaa bainahum ma'eeshatahum fil hayaatid dunyaa wa rafa'naa ba'dahum fawqa ba'din darajaatin li yattakhiza ba'duhum ba'dan sukhriyyaa; wa rahmatu Rabbika khairun mimmaa yajma'oon

“Is it they who would portion out the Mercy of thy Lord? It is We Who portion out between them their livelihood in the life of this world: and We raise some of them above others in ranks, so that some may command work from others. But the Mercy of thy Lord is better than the (wealth) which they amass.”

Quran 43:32 (Yusuf Ali Translation)
