Koran 33:72 — soera Al-Ahzab, vers 72

إِنَّا عَرَضۡنَا ٱلۡأَمَانَةَ عَلَى ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَٱلۡجِبَالِ فَأَبَيۡنَ أَن يَحۡمِلۡنَهَا وَأَشۡفَقۡنَ مِنۡهَا وَحَمَلَهَا ٱلۡإِنسَٰنُۖ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ ظَلُومٗا جَهُولٗا

Waarlijk. Wij hebben de godsdienstige verplichtingen aan de hemelen en de aarde en de bergen aangeboden, maar zij hebben het afgewezen (uit vrees en grootheid voor Allah) en waren daar bang voor (dat ze het niet kunnen dragen). Maar de mens droeg het. Waarlijk, Hij was onrechtvaardig en onwetend.

Indeed, we offered the Trust to the heavens and the earth and the mountains, and they declined to bear it and feared it; but man [undertook to] bear it. Indeed, he was unjust and ignorant
