Surah Fussilat Tafseer

وَمِنْ ايَاتِهِ

And among His signs,

means, signs of His ability to bring the dead back to life.

أَنَّكَ تَرَى الاَْرْضَ خَاشِعَةً

that you see the earth barren,

means, lifeless, with nothing growing in it; it is dead.

فَإِذَا أَنزَلْنَا عَلَيْهَا الْمَاء اهْتَزَّتْ وَرَبَتْ

but when We send down water (rain) to it, it is stirred to life and growth.

means, it brings forth all kinds of crops and fruits.

إِنَّ الَّذِي أَحْيَاهَا لَمُحْيِي الْمَوْتَى

إِنَّهُ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ

Verily, He Who gives it life, surely is able to give life to the dead. Indeed He is Able to do all things.
