quran
“I said, I would scatter them into corners, I would make the remembrance of them to cease from among men: / Were it not that I feared the wrath of the enemy, lest their adversaries should behave themselves strangely, and lest they should say, Our hand is high, and the LORD hath not done all this.”
Bible
“The desire of our soul is to they name, and to the remembrance of thee. [Isaiah]”
