سورة المؤمنون
79

وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِي ذَرَأَكُمۡ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَإِلَيۡهِ تُحۡشَرُونَ

Wahuwa allathee tharaakum fee alardi wailayhi tuhsharoona

And He has multiplied you through the earth, and to Him shall ye be gathered back.

80

وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِي يُحۡيِۦ وَيُمِيتُ وَلَهُ ٱخۡتِلَٰفُ ٱلَّيۡلِ وَٱلنَّهَارِۚ أَفَلَا تَعۡقِلُونَ

Wahuwa allathee yuhyee wayumeetu walahu ikhtilafu allayli waalnnahari afala taAAqiloona

It is He Who gives life and death, and to Him (is due) the alternation of Night and Day: will ye not then understand?

81

بَلۡ قَالُواْ مِثۡلَ مَا قَالَ ٱلۡأَوَّلُونَ

Bal qaloo mithla ma qala alawwaloona

On the contrary they say things similar to what the ancients said.
