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 17-20 of Chapter 88

Do they not look at the Camels, how they are made?- And at the Sky, how it is raised high?- And at the Mountains, how they are fixed firm?- And at the Earth, how it is spread out?
Verses 5-8 of Chapter 86

So let man consider of what he is created: He is created of water pouring forth, Coming from between the back and the ribs. Most surely He is able to return him (to life).
Verses 1-4 of Chapter 84

When the heaven bursts asunder, And obeys its Lord and it must. And when the earth is stretched, And casts forth what is in it and becomes empty.
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.
Verses 18-20 of Chapter 78

The day on which the trumpet shall be blown so you shall come forth in hosts, And the heaven shall be opened so that it shall be all openings, And the mountains shall be moved off so that they shall remain a mere semblance.
Verses 6-7 of Chapter 78

Have We not made the earth an even expanse? And the mountains as projections (thereon)?
Verses 20-23 of Chapter 77

Did We not create you from contemptible water? Then We placed it in a secure resting-place, Till an appointed term, So We proportion it– how well are We at proportioning (things).

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 8-9 of Chapter 70

The day when the sky will become as molten copper, And the hills become as flakes of wool.

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.
Verse 23 of Chapter 67

Say: “It is He Who has created you (and made you grow), and made for you the faculties of hearing, seeing, feeling and understanding: little thanks it is ye give.
Verse 19 of Chapter 67

Do they not observe the birds above them, spreading their wings and folding them in? None can uphold them except (Allah) Most Gracious: Truly (Allah) Most Gracious: Truly it is He that watches over all things.

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.
Verse 12 of Chapter 65

Allah is He Who created seven Firmaments and of the earth a similar number. Through the midst of them (all) descends His Command: that ye may know that Allah has power over all things, and that Allah comprehends, all things in (His) Knowledge.
