22:5

یَٓا اَیُّهَا النَّاسُ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ فٖی رَیْبٍ مِنَ الْبَعْثِ فَاِنَّا خَلَقْنَاكُمْ مِنْ تُرَابٍ ثُمَّ مِنْ نُطْفَةٍ ثُمَّ مِنْ عَلَقَةٍ ثُمَّ مِنْ مُضْغَةٍ مُخَلَّقَةٍ وَغَیْرِ مُخَلَّقَةٍ لِنُبَیِّنَ لَكُمْؕ وَنُقِرُّ فِی الْاَرْحَامِ مَا نَشَٓاءُ اِلٰٓى اَجَلٍ مُسَمًّى ثُمَّ نُخْرِجُكُمْ طِفْلًا ثُمَّ لِتَبْلُغُٓوا اَشُدَّكُمْۚ وَمِنْكُمْ مَنْ یُتَوَفّٰى وَمِنْكُمْ مَنْ یُرَدُّ اِلٰٓى اَرْذَلِ الْعُمُرِ لِكَیْلَا یَعْلَمَ مِنْ بَعْدِ عِلْمٍ شَیْـًٔاؕ وَتَرَى الْاَرْضَ هَامِدَةً فَاِذَٓا اَنْزَلْنَا عَلَیْهَا الْمَٓاءَ اهْتَزَّتْ وَرَبَتْ وَاَنْبَتَتْ مِنْ كُلِّ زَوْجٍ بَهٖیجٍ

Translations

O People, if you should be in doubt about the Resurrection, then [consider that] indeed, We created you from dust, then from a sperm-drop, then from a clinging clot, and then from a lump of flesh, formed and unformed - that We may show you. And We settle in the wombs whom We will for a specified term, then We bring you out as a child, and then [We develop you] that you may reach your [time of] maturity. And among you is he who is taken in [early] death, and among you is he who is returned to the most decrepit [old] age so that he knows, after [once having] knowledge, nothing. And you see the earth barren, but when We send down upon it rain, it quivers and swells and grows [something] of every beautiful kind

Saheeh International

O mankind! if ye are in doubt concerning the Resurrection, then lo! We have created you from dust, then from a drop of seed, then from a clot, then from a little lump of flesh shapely and shapeless, that We may make (it) clear for you. And We cause what We will to remain in the wombs for an appointed time, and afterward We bring you forth as infants, then (give you growth) that ye attain your full strength. And among you there is he who dieth (young), and among you there is he who is brought back to the most abject time of life, so that, after knowledge, he knoweth naught. And thou (Muhammad) seest the earth barren, but when We send down water thereon, it doth thrill and swell and put forth every lovely kind (of growth)
