Allah says,
[أَيَحْسَبُ
الإِنسَـنُ أَن يُتْرَكَ سُدًى ]
(Does man think that he will be left neglected) As-Suddi said, "Meaning not
resurrected.'' Mujahid, Ash-Shafi`i and `Abdur-Rahman bin Zayd bin Aslam, all
said, "Meaning, he will not be commanded and prohibited.'' Apparently the Ayah
includes both meanings. This means that he will not be left neglected in this
worldly life, without being commanded and prohibited. He also will not be left
neglected in his grave unattended to without being resurrected. Rather he will
be commanded and prohibited in this life, and gathered back to Allah in the
abode of the Hereafter. The intent here is to affirm the existence of the abode
of the final return and to refute whoever rejects it from the people of
deviance, ignorance and stubbornness. Thus, Allah uses the beginning of creation
as a proof for the repetition of the creation in His saying,
[أَلَمْ يَكُ
نُطْفَةً مِّن مَّنِىٍّ يُمْنَى ]
(Was he not a Nutfah of semen emitted) meaning, was not man a weak drop of
sperm from a despised fluid known as semen, that is emitted from the loins into
the wombs
[ثُمَّ كَانَ
عَلَقَةً فَخَلَقَ فَسَوَّى ]
(Then he became an `Alaqah; then shaped and fashioned in due proportion.)
meaning, he became a clot, then a lump of flesh, then he was formed and the soul
was blown into him. Then he became a perfect creation with healthy limbs, as
either a male or a female by the permission and decree of Allah. Thus, Allah
says,
[فَجَعَلَ مِنْهُ
الزَّوْجَيْنِ الذَّكَرَ وَالاٍّنثَى ]
(And made of him two sexes, male and female.) Then Allah says,
[أَلَيْسَ ذَلِكَ
بِقَـدِرٍ عَلَى أَن يُحْيِىَ الْمَوْتَى ]
(Is it not so then, that He would be able to give life to the dead) meaning,
is not He Who made this perfect creation from this weak drop of sperm able to
repeat that as He did originally And "the ability to repeat that'' either refers
to the origination only, or to both that and the process of perfecting it,
according to two different views, as in Allah's saying;
[وَهُوَ الَّذِى
يَبْدَأُ الْخَلْقَ ثُمَّ يُعِيدُهُ وَهُوَ أَهْوَنُ عَلَيْهِ]
(And He it is Who originates the creation, then He will repeat it; this is
easier for Him.) (30:27) The first view is more popular, and Allah knows
best.
