38 هُوَ الَّذِى خَلَقَكُم مِّن تُرَابٍ ثُمَّ مِن نُّطْفَةٍ ثُمَّ مِنْ عَلَقَةٍ ثُمَّ يُخْرِجُكُمْ طِفلا ثُمَّ لِتَبْلُغُوا أَشُدَّكُمْ ثُمَّ لِتَكُونُوا شيوخا ومنكم من ينوى مِن قبل والتسلموا العلا مُسَمًّى ) وَلَعَلَّكُمْ تَعْقِلُونَ. He it is Who created you from dust, then from a sperm drop, then from a clot; then He brings you forth as a child; then He lets you grow that you may attain your full strength; then He lets you become old -though some among you are caused to die before -and He lets you live that you may reach a term appointed, and that you may learn wisdom. (40:68) اللهُ الَّذِى خَلَقَكُم مِّن ضَعْفٍ ثُمَّ جَعَلَ مِنْ بَعْدِ ضَعْفِ قُوَةً ثُمَّ جَعَلَ مِنْ بَعْدِ قُوَّةٍ ضَعْفَا وَشَيْبَةً يَخْلُقُ مَا يَشَاءُ وَهُوَ الْعَلِيمُ الْقَدِيرُ ). Allah is He who created you in a state of weakness, and after weakness gave you strength; then after strength, caused weakness and old age. He creates what He pleases. . He is All-Knowing, All-Powerful. (30:55)
