Sura 16
Aya 65
65
وَاللَّهُ أَنزَلَ مِنَ السَّماءِ ماءً فَأَحيا بِهِ الأَرضَ بَعدَ مَوتِها ۚ إِنَّ في ذٰلِكَ لَآيَةً لِقَومٍ يَسمَعونَ

Muhammad Asad

AND GOD sends down water from the skies, giving life thereby to the earth after it had been lifeless:1 in this, behold, there is a message indeed for people who [are willing to] listen.
  • As so often in the Qur'an, a reference to the spiritual life engendered by divine revelation is followed here by a reference to the miracle of organic life as another indication of God's creative activity.
