We certainly know whatever they conceal or reveal. 76 Beholdest not man that We have created him from a sperm? Yet lo! he is a manifest disputer? 77 And [now] he [argues about Us, and] thinks of Us in terms of comparison, and is oblivious of how he himself was created! [And so] he says, "Who could give life to bones that have crumbled to dust?" 78 Say, "He will give them life Who created them for the first time! for He is Well-versed in every kind of creation!- 79 “The One Who has created for you fire from the green tree, so you kindle from it.” 80 Is not He, who created the heavens and earth, able to create the like of them? Yes indeed; He is the All-creator, the All-knowing. 81 His command is only when He intends a thing that He says to it, "Be," and it is. 82 Therefore Purity is to Him in Whose Hand* is the control over all things and it is towards Him that you will be returned.
