The Holy Quran 57:4 — Surah Al-Hadid

Arabic text

هُوَ ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ فِى سِتَّةِ أَيَّامٍ ثُمَّ ٱسْتَوَىٰ عَلَى ٱلْعَرْشِ ۚ يَعْلَمُ مَا يَلِجُ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا يَخْرُجُ مِنْهَا وَمَا يَنزِلُ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ وَمَا يَعْرُجُ فِيهَا ۖ وَهُوَ مَعَكُمْ أَيْنَ مَا كُنتُمْ ۚ وَٱللَّهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ بَصِيرٌ

Translation

It is He Who created the heavens and the earth in six days and then turned His attention towards the throne. He knows what enters the earth (such as rain), what emerges from it (such as plants), what descends from the sky (such as angels with His commands) and what lifts into it (such as the actions of man). He is with you wherever you are and Allaah sees whatever you do.

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

An explanation of this has already passed in Surah Al-A'raf, a little before the end of the eighth part [of the Quran]. For example, rainwater and seeds go down into the earth, and crops, trees and the like come out of it. An explanation of this has already passed in Surah Saba.
