١٢

And indeed, We created humankind1 from an extract of clay,
١٣
then placed each ˹human˺ as a sperm-drop1 in a secure place,
١٤
then We developed the drop into a clinging clot, then developed the clot into a lump ˹of flesh˺, then developed the lump into bones, then clothed the bones with flesh, then We brought it into being as a new creation.1 So Blessed is Allah, the Best of Creators.
١٥
After that you will surely die,
١٦
then on the Day of Judgment you will be resurrected.
١٧
And indeed, We created above you seven levels ˹of heaven˺. We are never unmindful of ˹Our˺ creation.
