It is Allah who creates you and takes your souls at death; and of you there are some who are sent back to a feeble age, so that they know nothing after having known (much): for Allah is All-Knowing, All-Powerful.
O mankind! if ye have a doubt about the Resurrection, (consider) that We created you out of dust, then out of sperm, then out of a leech-like clot, then out of a morsel of flesh, partly formed and partly unformed, in order that We may manifest (our power) to you; and We cause whom We will to rest in the wombs for an appointed term, then do We bring you out as babes, then (foster you) that ye may reach your age of full strength; and some of you are called to die, and some are sent back to the feeblest old age, so that they know nothing after having known (much), and (further), thou seest the earth barren and lifeless, but when We pour down rain on it, it is stirred (to life), it swells, and it puts forth every kind of beautiful growth (in pairs).
真主创造你们,然后使你们死亡。你们中有人复返于一生中最恶劣的阶段,以致他在有知识之后又变得一无所知。真主确是全知的,确是全能的。
众人啊!如果你们对于复活的事还在怀疑之中,那末,我确已创造了你们,先用泥土,继用一小滴精液,继用一块凝血,继用完整的和不完整的肉团,以便我对你们阐明(道理)。我使我所意欲的(胎儿)在子宫里安居一个定期,然后,我使你们出生为婴儿,然后(我让你们活着),以便你们达到成年。你们中有夭折的;有复返于最劣的年纪的,以便他在有知识之后,什么也不知道。你看大地是不毛的,当我使雨水降于大地的时候,它就活动和膨胀,而且生出各种美丽的植物。
