The Holy Quran 43:11 — Surah Az-Zukhruf

Arabic text

وَٱلَّذِى نَزَّلَ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ مَآءًۢ بِقَدَرٍ فَأَنشَرْنَا بِهِۦ بَلْدَةً مَّيْتًا ۚ كَذَٰلِكَ تُخْرَجُونَ

Translation

...and (it is Allaah) who sends rain from the sky in measure (as and when needed). With this rain We revive dead ground (causing vegetation to flourish there). In this manner (as We revive dead ground) will you all be resurrected (on the Day of Qiyaamah).

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

that is, in a particular measure which suited His wisdom and was decreed in His knowledge. Proofs of the second life: that is, just as He brings dead land to life and makes it flourish by means of rain, in the same way He will breathe life into your dead bodies and raise you up from the graves.
