Most
surely in the creation of the heavens and the earth and the alternation of the
night and the day, and the ships that run in the sea with that which profits
men, and the water that Allah sends down from the cloud, then gives life with
it to the earth after its death and spreads in it all (kinds of) animals, and
the changing of the winds and the clouds made subservient between the heaven
and the earth, there are signs for a people who understand.

Verses 28-29 of Chapter 2
How is it that you adopt the attitude
of disbelief towards Allah when the fact is that you were lifeless and He gave
you life, and He will take away life from you and will again restore you to
life: then you shall ultimately return to Him. He it is Who created for you all
that there is on the Earth; He then turned to the sky and ordered it into seven
heavens. And He has full knowledge of everything.
Verses 21-22 of Chapter 2
O Mankind, submit to your Lord Who
created you and those who were before you; in this way only you may expect to
save yourselves. It is He Who has made the earth a bed for you and the sky a
canopy; and it is He Who sends down rain from above for the growth of every
kind of food products for your sustenance. So, when you know this, you should
not set up equals to rank with Allah.

Verses 1-8 of Chapter 82
When the heaven
becomes cleft asunder, And when the stars become dispersed, And when the seas
are made to flow forth, And when the graves are laid open, Every soul shall
know what it has sent before and held back. O man ! what has beguiled you from
your Lord, the Gracious one, Who created you, then made you complete, then made
you symmetrical? Into whatever form He pleased He constituted you.
Verses 1-6 of Chapter 81
When the sun
(with its spacious light) is folded up; When the stars fall, losing their
lustre; When the mountains vanish (like a mirage); When the she-camels, ten
months with young, are left untended; When the wild beasts are herded together
(in the human habitations); When the oceans boil over with a swell.
Verses 17-32 of Chapter 80
Woe to man! What
hath made him reject Allah; From what stuff hath He created him? From a
sperm-drop: He hath created him, and then mouldeth him in due proportions; Then
doth He make His path smooth for him; Then He causeth him to die, and putteth
him in his grave; Then, when it is His Will, He will raise him up (again). By
no means hath he fulfilled what Allah hath commanded him. Then let man look at
his food, (and how We provide it): For that We pour forth water in abundance, And
We split the earth in fragments, And produce therein corn, And Grapes and
nutritious plants, And Olives and Dates, And enclosed Gardens, dense with lofty
trees, And fruits and fodder,- For use and convenience to you and your cattle.
Verses 27-33 of Chapter 79
What! Are ye the
more difficult to create or the heaven (above)? (Allah) hath constructed it: On
high hath He raised its canopy, and He hath given it order and perfection. Its
night doth He endow with darkness, and its splendour doth He bring out (with
light). And the earth, moreover, hath He extended (to a wide expanse); He
draweth out therefrom its moisture and its pasture; And the mountains hath He
firmly fixed;- For use and convenience to you and your cattle.
Sunday, 20 October 2013
Verses 36-40 of Chapter 75
Does man think that he will be left to himself to wander at
will? Was he not a mere sperm-drop, which is emitted (in the mother's womb)?
Then he became a blood-clot then Allah formed him and fashioned his limbs in
proportion; then from it He made two kinds, male and female. Has He not then
the power to give life to the dead?
Verses 3-9 of Chapter 75
Does man think that We shall not be able to put his bones together? Why not? We have even the power to shape and restore his very finger-tips. But man desires that he may go on doing evil in future as well. He asks, "When is the Day of Resurrection to be?" When the eyes are dazzled and the moon is darkened and the sun and the moon are brought together.

Verses 13-20 of Chapter 71
What is the matter with you that you do not expect for Allah
any dignity, although He has created you in successive stages? Do you not see
how Allah has created seven heavens, one above the other and made the moon a
light in them and the sun a lamp? And Allah has caused you to grow out of the earth
in a strange way, then He will restore you to the same earth, and will raise
you up from it suddenly. And Allah has spread out the earth as a carpet for you
that you may walk in its open paths.”

Verses 13-18 of Chapter 69
Then, when the Trumpet is blown once, and the earth and the mountains are razed and crushed into pieces with a single stroke, on that Day shall the Inevitable happen. On that Day the heaven shall split asunder, and its system shall loosen. The angels shall be on its sides and eight of them on that Day shall be upholding the Throne of your Lord, above them. That will be the Day when you will be brought forth: no secret of yours will remain hidden.

Verses 1-5 of Chapter 67
Full of blessings is He in Whose hand is the Kingdom of the
Universe, and He has power over everything. Who created death and life that He
may try you to see which of you is best in deeds, and He is All-Mighty as well
as All-Forgiving. Who created seven heavens, one above the other. You will not
see any fault in the creation of the Merciful. Turn up your eyes: do you see
any flaw anywhere? Look up again and yet again: your look will return to you,
disappointed, wearied. And indeed We have adorned the nearest heaven with
magnificent lamps and made them a means of driving away Satans. For these
satans We have prepared a blazing Fire.
Friday, 27 September 2013
Verse 25 of Chapter 57:
We sent
aforetime our messengers with Clear Signs and sent down with them the Book and
the Balance (of Right and Wrong), that men may stand forth in justice; and We
sent down Iron, in which is (material for) mighty war, as well as many benefits
for mankind, that Allah may test who it is that will help, Unseen, Him and His
messengers: For Allah is Full of Strength, Exalted in Might (and able to
enforce His Will).
Thursday, 26 September 2013
Verses 4-6 of Chapter 57:
It is He Who created the heavens and the earth in six days and then ascended the Throne. He knows whatever ever goes into the earth and whatever comes out of it, and whatever comes down from heaven and whatever goes up into it. He is with you wherever you may be and sees whatever you do. To Him belongs the Kingdom of the heavens and the earth, and all matters are referred to Him for decision It is He who causes the night to enter into the day and the day to enter into the night and He knows the hidden-most secrets of the hearts.

Verses 19-25 of Chapter 55:
He has let free
the two bodies of flowing water, meeting together: Between them is a Barrier
which they do not transgress: Then which of the favours of your Lord will ye
deny? Out of them come Pearls and Coral: Then which of the favours of your Lord
will ye deny? And His are the Ships sailing smoothly through the seas, lofty as
mountains: Then which of the favours of your Lord will ye deny?
Verses 4-10 of Chapter 55:
He has taught
him speech. The sun and the moon follow courses (exactly)
computed; And the herbs and the trees – both prostrate in adoration. And
the Firmament has He raised high, and He has set up the Balance, In
order that ye may not transgress balance.
So establish
weight with justice and fall not short in the balance. It is He Who has spread
out the earth for (His) creatures.

Verses 20-23 of Chapter 51:
There are many signs in the earth for those who affirm faiths and also in your own selves. Do you not perceive? In the heaven is your provision and also that which is being promised to you. So, by the Lord of the heaven and the earth! It is true, as true as you are speaking now.

Verses 1-7 of Chapter 51:
I swear by the wind
that scatters far and wide. Then those clouds bearing the load (of minute
things in space). Then those (ships) that glide easily. Then those (angels who)
distribute blessings by Our command; What you are threatened with is most
surely true. And the judgment must most surely come about. I swear by the
heaven full of ways.
Thursday, 12 September 2013
Verses 6-11 of Chapter 50:
What! Have they never looked up to the sky above them, (and
observed) how we made it and adorned it, and how there is no flaw in it? And We
spread out the earth and set mountains in it and caused to grow in it every
kind of beautiful vegetable. All these things are eye-openers and object
lessons for every servant who turns (to the Truth). And from the sky We sent
down blessed water where-by We produced gardens and harvest grain and tall
palm-trees laden with clusters of fruit, piled one over another. This is the
arrangement to provide food for the servants. With this water We revive a dead
land. Such also will be the resurrection (of the dead from the earth)."
Verses 2-4 of Chapter 50:
But they wonder
that there has come to them a Warner from among themselves. So the Unbelievers
say: “This is a wonderful thing! “What! When we die and become dust, (shall we
live again?) That is a (sort of) return far (from our understanding).” We
already know how much of them the earth takes away: With Us is a record
guarding (the full account).
Monday, 9 September 2013
Verses 3-6 of Chapter 45:
The fact is that there are countless Signs in the heavens
and the earth for those who believe. And in your own creation and in the
animals, whom Allah is scattering (all over the earth), there are signs for
those who affirm faith. And in the difference of the night and day, and in the
provisions that Allah sends down from the heaven, whereby He revives the earth
after its death, and in the circulation of the winds, there are many signs for
those who use their common sense. These are the Revelations of Allah, which We
are rehearsing to you accurately. Then, what is there after Allah and His
Revelations in which they will believe.

Verses 9-14 of Chapter 43:
If you ask them, "Who has created the heavens and the
earth?" they will surely say, "The Almighty, the All-Knowing One has
created them. " He it is Who made this earth a cradle for you and made in
it paths for you so that you may be guided to your destinations. Who sent down
water from heaven in due measure and revived thereby the dead earth-even so
shall you be brought out from the earth. Who created all these pairs and Who
made ships and animals as conveyance for you to ride on their back, so that
when you sit on them, you may remember your Lord's favor, and say,
"Glorified is He Who has subjected them to us, otherwise we could not have
brought them under control, and one day we have to return to our Lord."
Sunday, 1 September 2013
Verses 9-12 of Chapter 41:
Say: Is it that
ye deny Him Who created the earth in two Days? And do ye join equals with Him?
He is the Lord of (all) the Worlds. He set on the (earth), mountains standing
firm, high above it, and bestowed blessings on the earth, and measure therein
all things to give them nourishment in due proportion, in four Days, in
accordance with (the needs of) those who seek (Sustenance). Moreover He
comprehended in His design the sky, and it had been (as) smoke: He said to it
and to the earth: “Come ye together, willingly or unwillingly.” They said: “We
do come (together), in willing obedience.” So He completed them as seven
firmaments in two Days, and He assigned to each heaven its duty and command.
And We adorned the lower heaven with lights, and (provided it) with guard. Such
is the Decree of (Him) the Exalted in Might, Full of Knowledge.
Thursday, 29 August 2013
Verse 64 of Chapter 40:
It is Allah Who has made for you the earth as a resting
place, and the sky as a canopy, and has given you shape- and made your shapes
beautiful,- and has provided for you Sustenance, of things pure and good;- such
is Allah your Lord. So Glory to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds!

Thursday, 22 August 2013
Verses 5-6 of Chapter 39:
He has created the heavens and the earth with the truth. He
it is Who wraps the night about the day and the day about the night. He has so
subjected the sun and the moon that each is moving till an appointed time. Note
it well: He is the All-Mighty, the All-Forgiving. It is He Who created you from
a single being, then from that being He created its mate, and it is He Who
created for you eight heads of cattle, male and female. He shapes you in your
mothers' wombs, giving you one form after the other, under three dark veils.
This same Allah (Whose works are these) is your Lord Sovereignty is His. There
is no god but He. Whence are you, then, being turned away?
Sunday, 18 August 2013
Verses 33-40 of Chapter 36:
The dead land is a Sign for these people. We gave it life
and produced grain from it, which they eat. We made gardens of date-palms and
grapes in it and caused springs to gush out of it so that they may eat fruits
thereof. It is not their hands which have made all this. Do they not then give
thanks? Glorified is He Who created in pairs all species, whether of vegetable
kingdom or of their own (i.e., human) kind, or of those things of which they
know nothing. Another Sign for them is the night: We remove the day from above
it, and they are covered in darkness. And the Sun: it is moving to its place of
rest. This is the decree of the All-Mighty, All-Knowing God. And the Moon: We
have determined stages for it till it again becomes like an old dry
palm-branch. Neither is it possible for the Sun to overtake the Moon, nor for
the night to outstrip the day. Each is gliding in its own orbit.

Thursday, 15 August 2013
Verses 27-28 of Chapter 35:
Do you not see that Allah sends down rainwater from the sky
and we bring forth thereby a variety of fruits of different colors? In the
mountains also there are streaks, white and red and black, with different hues.
And likewise, men, beasts and cattle also have different colors. The fact is
that only those of His servants, who possess knowledge, fear Allah. Surely,
Allah is All-Mighty, All-Forgiving.
Sunday, 11 August 2013
Verse 9 of Chapter 34:
Nay, but those only, who do not believe in the Hereafter,
will incur the punishment and they are involved in gross error. Have they never
seen the earth, which surrounds them from front and from behind? If We will, We
can sink them underground, or cause some fragments of the sky to fall down upon
them. There is' indeed a Sign in this for every such servant who turns to God.
Tuesday, 6 August 2013
Verses 1-2 of Chapter 34:
Praise is for Allah alone Who is the Owner of everything in
the Leavens and the earth, and the praise is for Him alone in the Hereafter,
too. He is the All-Wise, the All-Aware. He knows whatever goes into the earth
and whatever comes out of it; and whatever comes down from the sky and whatever
ascends into it: He is the All-Merciful, the All-Forgiving.
Thursday, 1 August 2013
Verses 6-9 of Chapter 32:
He alone is the Knower of the hidden and the open, the All-Mighty,
the Compassionate, Who gave everything He created the best form. He began the
creation of man from clay; then spread his progeny by an extract the nature of
a despicable water; then He shaped him and breathed into him of His Spirit; and
He gave you the ears, and the eyes and the hearts: yet you are seldom grateful.
Verse 20 of Chapter 31:
Do you not see that Allah has subjected to you whatever is in the earth and the heavens, and has bestowed on you all His favors, visible as well as invisible? Yet there are some among the people who wrangle about Allah, without any knowledge, or guidance, or an enlightening Book.
Verses 46-50 of Chapter 30:
Of His Signs is this that He sends the winds to give good
news and to bless you with His Mercy and to make the ships sail by His Command,
so that you may seek His bounty and be grateful to Him. And We sent before you
Messengers to their peoples who came to them with clear Signs. Then We took
vengeance on the guilty ones and it was their right on Us that We should help
the believers. It is Allah Who sends the winds, which raise the cloud; then He
spreads the clouds in the sky as He pleases, and breaks them up; and then you
see drops of rainwater falling from the cloud. When He showers this rain upon
those of His servants He pleases, they are filled with joy, though before its
coming they had lost all hope. Just see the Signs of Allah's Mercy, how He
brings back to life the dead earth. Likewise, He will bring back the dead to
life: He has power over everything.
Tuesday, 30 July 2013
Verses 19-27 of Chapter 30:
He brings out the living from the dead and the dead from the
living, and gives life to the earth after its death. Likewise, you too, shall
be taken out (of the state of death). Of His Signs is this that He has created
you from dust; then behold, you are men who are multiplying (in the earth).
And of His Signs is this that He has created for you wives from your own
species that you may find peace with them, and created love and mercy between
you. Surely in this there are many Signs for those who reflect. And of His
Signs is the creation of the heavens and the earth and the difference of your
tongues and colors. Surely in this there are many Signs for the learned. And of
His Signs is your sleep by night and by day and your seeking of His bounty.
Surely in this there are many Signs for those who pay heed. And of His Signs is
this that He shows you the lightning, for fear as well as for hope, and He
sends down rainwater from the sky and thereby gives life to the earth after its
death. Surely in this there are many Signs for those who use their common
sense. And of his Signs is this that the Heaven and the Earth stand firm by His
Command, then as soon as He summons you out of the earth, you shall come out at
one call. Whoever exist in the heavens and the earth, are His servants; all are
obedient to Him. He it is Who originates the creation; then He alone will
repeat it, and this is easier for Him. His are the most exalted attributes in
the heavens and the earth, and He is the All-Mighty, the All-Wise.
Tuesday, 23 July 2013
Verses 60-61 of Chapter 27:
Well, Who is He Who created the heavens and the earth and
sent down rainwater for you from the sky, then caused to spring up by it
beautiful gardens, whose trees you had no power to cause to grow? Is there
besides Allah another god (who is His associate in these works)? (Nay,) but
these people themselves have strayed from the right path. And Who is it Who
made the earth as a place of rest and caused in it rivers to flow, and set in
it firm mountains and placed barriers between the two bodies of water? Is there
besides Allah another god (who is His associate in these works)? Nay, but most
of these people have no knowledge.
Wednesday, 17 July 2013
Verses 59-62 of Chapter 25:
He Who created
the heavens and the earth and all that is between, in six days, and is firmly
established on the Throne (of Authority): Allah Most Gracious: ask thou, then,
about Him of any acquainted (with such things). When it is said to them,
“Prostrate to (Allah) Most Gracious!”, they say, “And what is (Allah) Most
Gracious? Shall we prostrate to that which thou commandest us?” And it
increases their flight (from the Truth). Blessed is He Who made constellations
in the skies, and placed therein a Lamp and a Moon giving light; And it is He
Who made the Night and the Day to follow each other: for such as have the will
to celebrate His praises or to show their gratitude.
Verses 53-54 of Chapter 25:
It is He Who has let free the two bodies of flowing water: One palatable and sweet, and the other salt and bitter; yet has He made a barrier between them, a partition that is forbidden to be passed. It is He Who has created man from water: then has He established relationships of lineage and marriage: for thy Lord has power (over all things).
It is He Who has let free the two bodies of flowing water: One palatable and sweet, and the other salt and bitter; yet has He made a barrier between them, a partition that is forbidden to be passed.

Tuesday, 16 July 2013
Verses 45-50 of Chapter 25:
Have you not seen how your Lord lengthens out the shadow?
Had He willed, He would have made it constant, but We have made the sun its
pilot; then (as the sun climbs up), We roll it up little by little towards
Ourselves. And it is Allah Who has ordained the night as a garment for you, and
the sleep as a repose of death, and the day as the time of return to life. And
it is He, Who drives the winds to be the harbingers of His mercy: then He sends
down pure water from the sky so that He may revive the dead land, and quench
the thirst of many of His creatures from among beasts and men. We present the
same phenomenon over and over again before them so that they may learn a lesson
from it; but most people decline to adopt any other attitude than of disbelief
and ingratitude.
Monday, 15 July 2013
Verses 43-45 of Chapter 24:
Do you not observe that Allah makes the cloud move gently
then joins its pieces together: then gathers it into a mass of thick cloud:
then you see that rain-drops fall down from its midst: and He sends down hail
out of the high up mountains in the heaven: then He smites with it whom He
wills and turns it away from whom He pleases: then a flash of lightning from it
dazzles the eyes. He alternates the day and the night: there is indeed a lesson
in it for those who have observing eyes. And Allah created every creature from
a sort of water: of them some one crawls upon its belly: another walks on two
legs and still another on four; Allah creates whatever He wills for He has
power over everything.
Monday, 8 July 2013
Verses 12-20 of Chapter 23:
We created man from an essence of clay: then turned him into a sperm-drop in a safe place: then changed the sperm drop into a clot of blood and the clot into a piece of flesh: then turned the piece of flesh into bones: then clothed the bones with flesh, and then brought him forth as quite a different creation (from the embryo). So blessed is Allah, the best of all creators. Then after this you shall all die: then most surely you shall' be raised up on the Day of Resurrection. And We have made seven paths above you We were not novice in the art of creation. And We sent down rain from the sky in due measure and lodged it in the earth and We are able to take it away as We will. Then with that rain We caused vineyards and palm groves to spring up. In those gardens there are delicious fruits from which you obtain sustenance. And We created the tree which grows on Mount Sinai, it gives oil and is used as food also by those who like to eat it.
Thursday, 4 July 2013
Verses 5-6 of Chapter 22:
O mankind! if ye
have a doubt about the Resurrection, (consider) that We created you out of
dust, then out of sperm, then out of a leech-like clot, then out of a morsel of
flesh, partly formed and partly unformed, in order that We may manifest (our
power) to you; and We cause whom We will to rest in the wombs for an appointed
term, then do We bring you out as babes, then (foster you) that ye may reach
your age of full strength; and some of you are called to die, and some are sent
back to the feeblest old age, so that they know nothing after having known (much),
and (further), thou seest the earth barren and lifeless, but when We pour down
rain on it, it is stirred (to life), it swells, and it puts forth every kind of
beautiful growth (in pairs). This is so, because Allah is the Reality: it is He
Who gives life to the dead, and it is He Who has power over all things.
Tuesday, 2 July 2013
Verses 30-33 of Chapter 21:
Have not the people, who have disbelieved (the Message), ever considered this: the heavens and the earth were at first one mass; then We parted them, and created every living thing from water? Do they not acknowledge (that this is Our Creation)? And We set mountains firmly in the earth lest it should tilt to one side along with them, and We left therein open paths so that they may find their way. And We made the sky a safe canopy, but in spite of this they do not pay due heed to its signs. And it is Allah, Who has made the night and the day and created the sun and the moon; all of them are floating, each in its own orbit.
Thursday, 27 June 2013
Verses 52-55 of Chapter 20:
Moses replied, "The knowledge of that is with my Lord,
secure in a writing; my Lord neither errs nor forgets." He it is Who has spread the earth as a
bed for you, and made paths for you to move about (from place to place); He
sent down rain water from above and produced different kinds of vegetation: eat
of these and graze your cattle. Surely there is many a Sign in this for those
who possess common sense. We have created you from this earth and We will
return you into it and then will bring you forth out of it once again.
Wednesday, 12 June 2013
Verses 78-79 of Chapter 16:
Allah brought you out of your mothers' wombs in this state
that you knew nothing: He gave you ears and eyes and thinking minds so that you
may be grateful. Have they never observed how the birds are poised in the vault
of heaven? Who holds them up but Allah? There are many Signs in this for those
people who believe.
Tuesday, 11 June 2013
Verses 65-69 of Chapter 16:
Allah sent down water from heaven, and by it
gave life to the earth after it had been dead: indeed there is a Sign in this
for those who listen (to the Message). And surely there is a lesson for you in
the cattle: We give you to drink of that which is in their bellies between
filth and blood, that is, pure milk, which is very pleasant to those who drink
it. (Likewise) We give you from date-palms and vines a drink from which you
derive intoxicants and also pure food: indeed there is a Sign in this for those
who make use of their common sense. And behold! Your Lord has inspired the bee
with this "Build thy hive in the mountains, trees and in the creepers over
trellises: then drink nectar from every kind of fruit, and follow the ways made
smooth by the Lord." From its belly comes out a fluid of varying hues
wherein is healing for mankind. Here is indeed a Sign for those people who
ponder over it.
Monday, 10 June 2013
Verses 10-16 of Chapter 16:
It is He, Who sends down for you water from the sky, which
provides drinking water for you and brings forth fodder for your cattle. And
thereby He grows for you crops and olives and date-palms and vines and
different kinds of many other fruits. Surely there is a great Sign in this for
those people who ponder. He has subjected to your service the day and the night
and the sun and the moon: likewise all the stars are subjected by His Command.
In this there are many Signs for those who make use of their common sense. And
in the things of different colors He has created for you in the Earth, there is
indeed a Sign for those who learn lessons from them. It is He Who has subjected
the sea to your service so that you may get fresh flesh from it to eat and
bring out of it articles of ornament, which you wear, and you see that the ship
sails her course through it. He has done all this so that you may seek of His
bounty and show gratitude to Him. He has driven mountains firmly into the earth
lest it should turn away from its usual course along with you: He has caused
rivers to flow and made natural ways so that you may be directed aright. He has
placed landmarks to direct people, and by stars, too, they are directed aright.
Thursday, 6 June 2013
Verses 19-22 of Chapter 15:
And We have spread out the earth, and
have placed firm mountains in it, and caused all kinds of things to grow in it,
in due proportion. And in it We have provided means of living, for you and for
those whom you provide not. And there is not a thing, but the supplies for it
are with Us, and We do not send it down but in a known measure. And We send the
winds fertilizing, then We cause the water to descend from the sky, and We give
it to you to drink, and it is not you who are the owners of its supply.
Wednesday, 5 June 2013
Verses 32-34 of Chapter 14:
Allah is He Who has created the heavens and the earth, and
He sent down rain water from the sky where with He produced different kinds of
fruits to provide you with food. It is He Who subdued the ship for you that it
may sail in the seas by His order and likewise He subdued the rivers for you.
It is He Who subdued the sun and the moon so that they should steadfastly
pursue their courses and He subdued day and night for you. It is He Who fulfilled
all your requirements; so much so that you cannot count His bounties, if you
tried to number them. The fact is that man is very unjust and ungrateful.
