  And whoever reflects on the creations, what he sees of them and what he does not see,

• مَا قَدَرْتُ أَنْ أَتَأَمَّلَ أُمِّي مُنْذُ أَسْلَمَتْ

  I could not look after my mother since she embraced Islam.

  أَتَأَمَّلَ — I look after. A present-tense verb with 'I' built in, sitting in the subjunctive form because the 'that' particle before it requires that shape. It names the act he could not do, gaze upon / attend to his mother. The subjunctive ending is the signal that this verb is the content of the 'to...' clause, not a free statement.
