Gostei de todas as sugestões, mas para não repetir alguns termos que já estava usando no texto, "medida certa" coube melhor. Agradeço a todos.

na medida perfeita, na proporção perfeita


Explanation:
Acho que o segredo aqui é usar a palavra medida, ou proporção.

Provavelmente, há semelhança no Alcorão entre a frase que você busca e várias referências às proporções de chuva que são enviadas por Alá. Veja as referências abaixo.

"One of the items of information
given in the Qur'an about rain is that it is sent down to Earth in due measure."

"The Proportion of Rain. In the eleventh verse of Surat az-Zukhruf, rain
is defined as water sent down in due measure."

Não tenho o Alcorão em português para fornecer a tradução exata, mas a Bíblia oferece o seguinte, em contexto semelhante:

"Quem mediu na concha da sua mão as águas, e tomou a medida dos céus aos palmos, e recolheu numa medida o pó da terra e pesou os montes com peso e os outeiros em balanças"

Isaías 40:12

Espero que isso ajude.
