56. Vakia · verses 58–63

أَفَرَءَيۡتُم مَّا تُمۡنُونَ

Afaraaytum ma tumnoona

Do ye then see?- The (human Seed) that ye throw out,-

ءَأَنتُمۡ تَخۡلُقُونَهُۥٓ أَمۡ نَحۡنُ ٱلۡخَٰلِقُونَ

Aantum takhluqoonahu am nahnu alkhaliqoona

Is it ye who create it, or are We the Creators?

نَحۡنُ قَدَّرۡنَا بَيۡنَكُمُ ٱلۡمَوۡتَ وَمَا نَحۡنُ بِمَسۡبُوقِينَ

Nahnu qaddarna baynakumu almawta wama nahnu bimasbooqeena

We have decreed Death to be your common lot, and We are not to be frustrated

عَلَىٰٓ أَن نُّبَدِّلَ أَمۡثَٰلَكُمۡ وَنُنشِئَكُمۡ فِي مَا لَا تَعۡلَمُونَ

AAala an nubaddila amthalakum wanunshiakum fee ma la taAAlamoona

from changing your Forms and creating you (again) in (forms) that ye know not.

وَلَقَدۡ عَلِمۡتُمُ ٱلنَّشۡأَةَ ٱلۡأُولَىٰ فَلَوۡلَا تَذَكَّرُونَ

Walaqad AAalimtumu alnnashata aloola falawla tathakkaroona

And ye certainly know already the first form of creation: why then do ye not celebrate His praises?

أَفَرَءَيۡتُم مَّا تَحۡرُثُونَ

Afaraaytum ma tahruthoona

See ye the seed that ye sow in the ground?
