''O mankind! If you doubt that there is life after death, remember that We first created you from dust, then from a sperm, then from a leech-like mass, then from a morsel of flesh, partly formed and partly unformed, so that We may manifest to you Our power. We cause to remain in the womb whom We wish for an appointed term, and then We bring you forth as infants; then We nourish you so that you may reach your age of full strength. There are some of you who die young and some who live on to their abject old age, when all that they once knew they know no more. [And if you are still in doubt about life after death] you can see the land dry and barren; but no sooner do We pour down rain upon it, then it begins to stir and swell, putting forth every kind of beautiful growth in pairs.''
The Holy Quran, 22:5
