Verse range: 36:33

Open in Qurani

Proof of the Creator of the Universe and of Life after Death Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, says:

وآية لهم

And a sign for them, means, evidence for them of the existence of the Creator and His perfect power and ability to resurrect the dead,

اﻻرض الميتة

... is the dead land. means, when it is dead and arid, with no vegetation, then Allah sends water upon it, it is stirred (to life), and it swells and puts forth every lovely kind (of growth). Allah says:

أحييناها وأخرجنا منها حبا فمنه يٲكلون

We give it life, and We bring forth from it grains, so that they eat thereof. meaning, `We have made it a provision for them and their cattle.'

وجعلنا فيها جنات من نخيل وأعناب وفجرنا فيها من العيون
