In the Quran

قَالُوٓا۟ أَتَعْجَبِينَ مِنْ أَمْرِ ٱللَّهِ ۖ رَحْمَتُ ٱللَّهِ وَبَرَكَٰتُهُۥ عَلَيْكُمْ أَهْلَ ٱلْبَيْتِ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ حَمِيدٌۭ مَّجِيدٌۭ

انہوں نے کہا کیا تم خدا کی قدرت سے تعجب کرتی ہو؟ اے اہل بیت تم پر خدا کی رحمت اور اس کی برکتیں ہیں۔ وہ سزاوار تعریف اور بزرگوار ہے

They said: Wonderest thou at the commandment of Allah? The mercy of Allah and His blessings be upon you, O people of the house! Lo! He is Owner of Praise, Owner of Glory!
