إِنَّمَا قَوْلُنَا لِشَىْءٍ إِذَآ أَرَدْنَـٰهُ أَن نَّقُولَ لَهُۥ كُن فَيَكُونُ ٤٠
And Our word unto a thing, when We intend it, is only that We say unto it: Be! and it is.
Indeed, Our word to a thing when We intend it is but that We say to it, "Be," and it is.
(As for the possibility of resurrection, bear in mind that) whenever We do will something, We have to do no more than say: "Be", and it is.
