340. Sign of God?
It is Arabic for "sign of god." The name originates from the Quran where human beings can also be regarded as signs of God, the literal translation of the title. 51:20-21 of the Quran states:
On the earth are signs (___) for those of assured Faith,
As also in your own selves: Will ye not then see?
But, the fact that a rock or a tree is just as much a sign of god (_____) is a sobering notion at times lost.
