Allah says:

...

and He sends down water from the sky, and therewith revives the earth after its death.

After it was barren, with nothing growing there, then the water comes to it and

it is stirred, and it swells and puts forth every lovely kind (of growth). (22:5)

In this is a clear sign and proof of the resurrection and the coming of the Hour.
