Quote:
{32:4} It is God who created the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them in six days; then He established Himself above the Throne. You have not besides Him any protector or any intercessor; so will you not be reminded?

I suggest,
{32:4} [It is] God who created the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them in six Days; then settled on the Throne. You do not have beneath Him an ally nor mediator; will you not then remember?

Quote:
{32:5} He arranges [each] matter from the heaven to the earth; then it will ascend to Him in a Day, the extent of which is a thousand years of those which you count.

I suggest,
{32:5} He arranges [all] matter from the heaven to the earth; then it will ascend to Him in a Day, the extent of which is a thousand years of what you count.

Quote:
{32:6} That is the Knower of the unseen and the witnessed, the Exalted in Might, the Merciful,

I suggest,
{32:6} That is the Knower of the Beyond and the present, the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.

Quote:
{32:9} Then He proportioned him and breathed into him from His [created] soul and made for you hearing and vision and hearts; little are you grateful.

I suggest,
{32:9} Then He proportioned him and breathed into him from His spirit and made for you hearing, vision and hearts; little do you thank.
