This verse emphasizes that the recreation of human beings
in the Hereafter will resemble their first creation. A person who
dies and becomes one with the earth will be restored to life
through our Lord's resurrection, and assume human form once

Thus the first creation of man resembles the recreation in
the Hereafter, and that will take place miraculously, in a single
moment, not by stages.

people of the Prophet Moses (pbuh) to strike part of a cow they
had previously sacrificed. God then performed a miracle, and
the tribe witnessed the corpse coming back to life. This account
is revealed as follows in the Qur'an:
Remember when you killed someone and violently ac-

Signs so that hopefully you will understand. Then your
hearts became hardened after that, so they were like
rocks or even harder still. There are some rocks from
which rivers gush out, and others which split open and
