95 Preface ۞ إِنَّ اللَّهَ فالِقُ الحَبِّ وَالنَّوىٰ ۖ يُخرِجُ الحَيَّ مِنَ المَيِّتِ وَمُخرِجُ المَيِّتِ مِنَ الحَيِّ ۚ ذٰلِكُمُ اللَّهُ ۖ فَأَنّىٰ تُؤفَكونَAli Quli QaraiIndeed Allah is the splitter of the grain and the pit.1 He brings forth the living from the dead and He brings forth the dead from the living. That is Allah! Then where do you stray? That is, the single, central kernel or stone of certain fruits, such as a date, peach or cherry.
