Life and Death and life
Did We not make the earth a cradle
77:25Have We not made the earth a receptacle
For the living and the dead?
77:26Both for the living and the dead,
He gives life and causes death.
2:258Bethink thee of him who had an argument with Abraham about his Lord, because Allah had given him the kingdom; how, when Abraham said: My Lord is He Who giveth life and causeth death, he answered: I give life and cause death. Abraham said: Lo! Allah causeth the sun to rise in the East, so do thou cause it to come up from the West. Thus was the disbeliever abashed. And Allah guideth not wrongdoing folk.
3:156O ye who believe! Be not as those who disbelieved and said of their brethren who went abroad in the land or were fighting in the field: If they had been (here) with us they would not have died or been killed: that Allah may make it anguish in their hearts. Allah giveth life and causeth death; and Allah is Seer of what ye do.
7:158Say (O Muhammad): O mankind! Lo! I am the messenger of Allah to you all - (the messenger of) Him unto Whom belongeth the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth. There is no Allah save Him. He quickeneth and He giveth death. So believe in Allah and His messenger, the Prophet who can neither read nor write, who believeth in Allah and in His Words, and follow him that haply ye may be led aright.
9:116Lo! Allah! Unto Him belongeth the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth. He quickeneth and He giveth death. And ye have, instead of Allah, no protecting friend nor helper.
10:56He quickeneth and giveth death, and unto Him ye will be returned.
15:23Lo! and it is We, even We, Who quicken and give death, and We are the Inheritor.
22:6That is because Allah, He is the Truth and because He quickeneth the dead, and because He is Able to do all things;
22:66And He it is Who gave you life, then He will cause you to die, and then will give you life (again). Lo! man is verily an ingrate.
23:80And He it is Who giveth life and causeth death, and His is the difference of night and day. Have ye then no sense?
40:68He it is Who quickeneth and giveth death. When He ordaineth a thing, He saith unto it only: Be! and it is.
42:9Or have they chosen protecting friends besides Him? But Allah, He (alone) is the Protecting Friend. He quickeneth the dead, and He is Able to do all things.
44:8There is no Allah save Him. He quickeneth and giveth death; your Lord and Lord of your forefathers.
50:43Lo! We it is Who quicken and give death, and unto Us is the journeying.
53:44And that He it is Who giveth death and giveth life;
57:2His is the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth; He quickeneth and He giveth death; and He is Able to do all things.
He gives life to the dead.
22:6That is because Allah, He is the Truth and because He quickeneth the dead, and because He is Able to do all things;
29:63And if thou wert to ask them: Who causeth water to come down from the sky, and therewith reviveth the earth after its death? they verily would say: Allah. Say: Praise be to Allah! But most of them have no sense.
30:50Look, therefore, at the prints of Allah's mercy (in creation): how He quickeneth the earth after her death. Lo! He verily is the Quickener of the Dead, and He is Able to do all things.
45:5And the difference of night and day and the provision that Allah sendeth down from the sky and thereby quickeneth the earth after her death, and the ordering of the winds, are portents for a people who have sense.
46:33Have they not seen that Allah, Who created the heavens and the earth and was not wearied by their creation, is Able to give life to the dead? Aye, He verily is Able to do all things.
57:17Know that Allah quickeneth the earth after its death. We have made clear Our revelations for you, that haply ye may understand.
How can you deny Allah when He gave you life after you were nothing? He will cause you to die, then bring you back to life.
2:28How disbelieve ye in Allah when ye were dead and He gave life to you! Then He will give you death, then life again, and then unto Him ye will return.
22:66And He it is Who gave you life, then He will cause you to die, and then will give you life (again). Lo! man is verily an ingrate.
You cause the night to merge into the day and the day into the night. You bring forth the living from the dead and the dead from the living.
3:27Thou causest the night to pass into the day, and Thou causest the day to pass into the night. And Thou bringest forth the living from the dead, and Thou bringest forth the dead from the living. And Thou givest sustenance to whom Thou choosest, without stint.
6:95Lo! Allah (it is) Who splitteth the grain of corn and the date-stone (for sprouting). He bringeth forth the living from the dead, and is the bringer-forth of the dead from the living. Such is Allah. How then are ye perverted?
7:57And He it is Who sendeth the winds as tidings heralding His mercy, till, when they bear a cloud heavy (with rain), We lead it to a dead land, and then cause water to descend thereon and thereby bring forth fruits of every kind. Thus bring We forth the dead. Haply ye may remember.
30:19He bringeth forth the living from the dead, and He bringeth forth the dead from the living, and He reviveth the earth after her death. And even so will ye be brought forth.
And Allah caused you to grow from the earth like plants
71:17And Allah hath caused you to grow as a growth from the earth,
Then He will return you to it, and bring you forth again.
71:18And afterward He maketh you return thereto, and He will bring you forth again, a (new) forthbringing.
Allah created you, then causes you to die. Some of you reach old age, forgetting what they once knew.
16:70And Allah createth you, then causeth you to die, and among you is he who is brought back to the most abject stage of life, so that he knoweth nothing after (having had) knowledge. Lo! Allah is Knower, Powerful.
It is We who bring the dead to life and record what they’ve sent ahead and what they’ve left behind. Everything is kept in a clear record.
36:12Lo! We it is Who bring the dead to life. We record that which they send before (them, and their footprints. And all things We have kept in a clear Register.
He created death and life to test which of you is best in deeds.
67:2Who hath created life and death that He may try you which of you is best in conduct; and He is the Mighty, the Forgiving,
Allah is the One who created you, then provided for you, then causes you to die, then brings you back to life.
30:40Allah is He Who created you and then sustained you, then causeth you to die, then giveth life to you again. Is there any of your (so-called) partners (of Allah) that doeth aught of that? Praised and Exalted be He above what they associate (with Him)!
He strikes up arguments about Us, forgetting his own creation. He says, “Who will bring bones back to life after they’ve decayed?”
36:78And he hath coined for Us a similitude, and hath forgotten the fact of his creation, saying: Who will revive these bones when they have rotted away?
Say: “The One who created them the first time will bring them back.
36:79Say: He will revive them Who produced them at the first, for He is Knower of every creation,
Does the human being think We will not reassemble his bones?
75:3Thinketh man that We shall not assemble his bones?
Yes indeed, we are able even to restore his very fingertips.
75:4Yea, verily. We are Able to restore his very fingers!
Is not the One who did this able to raise the dead?
75:40Is not He (Who doeth so) Able to bring the dead to life?
Have you not seen those who fled their homes in thousands, fearing death? Allah said to them, ‘Die,’ then brought them back to life.
2:243Bethink thee (O Muhammad) of those of old, who went forth from their habitations in their thousands, fearing death, and Allah said unto them: Die; and then He brought them back to life. Lo! Allah is a Lord of Kindness to mankind, but most of mankind give not thanks.
Is one who was dead, whom We brought to life and gave light to walk among people, like one who remains in darkness, never emerging?
6:122Is he who was dead and We have raised him unto life, and set for him a light wherein he walketh among men, as him whose similitude is in utter darkness whence he cannot emerge? Thus is their conduct made fairseeming for the disbelievers.
If you obey a man like yourselves, you’ll be losers.
23:34If ye were to obey a mortal like yourselves, then, lo! ye surely would be losers.
Does he promise that when you die and become dust and bones, you’ll be brought back to life?
23:35Doth he promise you that you, when ye are dead and have become dust and bones, will (again) be brought forth?
Far, fetched, far, fetched is what you’re promised!
23:36Begone, begone, with that which ye are promised!
There’s nothing but our worldly life, we live and die, and we won’t be resurrected.
23:37There is naught but our life of the world; we die and we live, and we shall not be raised (again).
He’s just a man inventing lies about Allah, we won’t believe him.”
23:38He is only a man who hath invented a lie about Allah. We are not going to put faith in him.
