And He it is Who initiates the creation of mankind then brings it back after their destruction and that is even easier for Him than the initiation — from the perspective of those addressed for whom to repeat something is easier than doing it for the first time — otherwise in God’s case exalted be He both are just as easy. His is the loftiest description in the heavens and the earth the most sublime attribute namely that ‘there is no god except God’. And He is the Mighty in His kingdom the Wise in His creation.
- 30:2727
وَهُوَ الَّذِي يَبْدَأُ الْخَلْقَ ثُمَّ يُعِيدُهُ وَهُوَ أَهْوَنُ عَلَيْهِ ۚ وَلَهُ الْمَثَلُ الْأَعْلَىٰ فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ ۚ وَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الْحَكِيمُ
And He it is who originateth the creation, then shall restore it, and it is easier for Him. His is the most exalted similitude in the heavens and in the earth; and He is the Mighty, the Wise.
