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.

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.
