The Holy Quran 2:28 — Surah Al-Baqarah

Arabic text

كَيْفَ تَكْفُرُونَ بِٱللَّهِ وَكُنتُمْ أَمْوَٰتًا فَأَحْيَـٰكُمْ ۖ ثُمَّ يُمِيتُكُمْ ثُمَّ يُحْيِيكُمْ ثُمَّ إِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُونَ

Translation

How can you disbelieve in (deny) Allaah when you were once lifeless (non-existent) and it was He Who granted you life (brought you into existence)? Thereafter He will cause you to die and give you life (once again on the Day of Qiyaamah) and then you will return to Him (for accountability).

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

Disbelief is contrary to reason: that is, [you were] lifeless bodies with no sensation or movement at all: first you were elements, then you became the food of your parents, then a drop of semen, then a clot of blood, then flesh.
