191. "Those who remember Allah while standing, sitting and lying on their sides, and meditate on the creation of the heavens and the earth, (seriously saying) 'Our Lord! You have not created (all) this in vain! Glory be to you! Save us then from the torment of the Fire'."
The remembrance of Allah in all conditions of a person is the sign of wisdom.
"Those who remember Allah while standing, sitting and lying on their sides..."
And, 'the possessors of intellects' are those who remember Allah and contemplate. The Qur'an introduces them such:
"Those who remember Allah while standing, sitting and lying on their sides, and meditate…,"
Faith is worthy when it is based on intelligence and contemplation. It says:
"… and meditate on the creation of the heavens and the earth …"

"…' Our Lord! You have not created (all) this in vain! Glory be to you! Save us then from the torment of the Fire '."
