The statement concerning the exegesis of His words, the Exalted: a-fa-raʾaytum mā tumnūn ("Have you then considered that which you emit?") (56:58)
The Exalted, glorified be His remembrance, says to these deniers of the resurrection: Have you then considered, O you who deny the power of Allah to bring you back to life after your death — the drops of semen that you emit into the wombs of your women — is it you who create that, or are We the Creators?
