Chapter 50, Page 518, Juz 26

1. Qaf By the glorious Quran! 2. But the disbelievers are amazed that a warner has come from among them and they say, ‘How strange! 3. To come back [to life] after we have died and become dust? That is too farfetched.’ 4. We know very well what the earth takes away from them: We keep a comprehensive record. 5. But the disbelievers deny the truth when it comes to them; they are in a state of confusion. 6. Do they not see the sky above them––how We have built and adorned it, with no rifts in it; 7. how We spread out the earth and put solid mountains on it, and caused every kind of joyous plant to grow in it, 8. as a lesson and reminder for every servant who turns to God; 9. and how We send blessed water down from the sky and grow with it gardens, the harvest grain, 10. and tall palm trees laden with clusters of dates, 11. as a provision for everyone; how with water We give [new] life to a land that is dead? This is how the dead will emerge [from their graves]. 12. The people of Noah disbelieved long before these disbelievers, as did the people of Rass, Thamud, 13. Ad, Pharaoh, and the brothers of Lot, 14. the Forest-Dwellers, Tubba: all of these people disbelieved their messengers, and so My warning was realized. 15. So were We incapable of the first creation? No indeed! Yet they doubt a second creation.
