[FONT=book antiqua, goudy old style, bell mt][FONT=book antiqua, goudy old style, bell mt]O[/FONT] Men! If you are in doubt as to the truth of resurrection,
remember that, verily, We have created every one of you out of dust,
then out of a drop of sperm, then out of a germ-cell,
then out of an embryonic lump complete in itself and yet incomplete,
so that We might make your origin clear unto you.
And whatever We will to be born We cause to rest
in the mothers' wombs for a term set by Us,
and then We bring you forth as infants
and allow you to live so that some of you might attain to maturity;
for among you are such as are caused to die in childhood,
just as many a one of you is reduced in old age to a most abject state,
ceasing to know anything of what he once knew so well.
And if, O man, thou art still in doubt as to resurrection, consider this:
thou canst see the earth dry and lifeless --
and suddenly, when We send down waters upon it,
it stirs and swells and puts forth every kind of lovely plant!
All this happens because God alone is the Ultimate Truth,
and because He alone brings the dead to life,
and because He has the power to will anything.

[FONT=book antiqua, goudy old style, bell mt][FONT=book antiqua, goudy old style, bell mt]H[/FONT]owever it be, God Himself bears witness to the truth
of what He has bestowed from on high upon thee:
out of His own wisdom has He bestowed it from on high,
with the angels bearing witness thereto --
although none can bear witness as God does.

[FONT=book antiqua, goudy old style, bell mt]The Truth[/FONT]
[FONT=book antiqua, goudy old style, bell mt][FONT=book antiqua, goudy old style, bell mt]S[/FONT]ay: "Who is it that provides you with sustenance out of heaven and earth,
or who is it that has full power over your hearing and sight?
And who is it that brings forth the living out of that which is dead,
and brings forth the dead out of that which is alive?
And who is it that governs all that exists?"
And they will surely answer, "It is God."
Say, then: "Will you not, then, become fully conscious of Him --
seeing that He is God, your Sustainer, the Ultimate Truth?
For, after the truth has been forsaken, what is there left but error?
How, then can you lose sight of the truth?"
