(Say) to the disbelievers of Mecca, O Muhammad: (Who provideth for you from the sky) through rain (and the earth) by means of vegetation and fruit, (or Who owneth hearing and sight) He says: who is able to create hearing and sight; (and Who bringeth forth the living from the dead) who is able to bring forth the living from the dead, i.e. living creatures and beasts from sperm drops; it is also said that this means: who can bring a bird from an egg or a spike from a grain (and bringeth forth the dead from the living) sperm drops from living creatures and beasts; it is also said that this means: an egg from a bird or a grain from a spike; (and Who directeth the course) and who can direct and look into the affairs of His servants and sends the angels with revelation, Scriptures and misfortunes? (They will say: Allah. Then say) O Muhammad: (Will ye not then keep your duty (unto Him)) will you not then obey Allah?
- 10:3131
قُلْ مَنْ يَرْزُقُكُمْ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالْأَرْضِ أَمَّنْ يَمْلِكُ السَّمْعَ وَالْأَبْصَارَ وَمَنْ يُخْرِجُ الْحَيَّ مِنَ الْمَيِّتِ وَيُخْرِجُ الْمَيِّتَ مِنَ الْحَيِّ وَمَنْ يُدَبِّرُ الْأَمْرَ ۚ فَسَيَقُولُونَ اللَّهُ ۚ فَقُلْ أَفَلَا تَتَّقُونَ
Ask them: "Who gives you food and sustenance from the skies and the earth? Or, who is the lord of ear and eye? And who brings forth the living from the dead, the dead from the living? And who directs all affairs?" They will say: "God." So tell them: "Why do you not fear Him?"
