The cycling and recycling of the creation in the Quran
The Word of your Lord is justified concerning those who disbelieve
————————————————————–
In the Noble Quran, Allah is asking mankind some important questions.
It seems compulsory for the serious one who is looking for the truth to have a look at those questions and if possible to answer them.
Allah’ questions are many. In this series, these questions are chosen randomly.
In verses 10:33-34, Allah asks mankind this question:
Is there of those whom you associate with your Lord one that can originate creation, then recreated it?
This is what we call today cycling and recycling of the creation e.g. of water, minerals, plants, fungi, microbes etc.
Allah produces creation then reproduces it, then brings it back to life on the Day of Judgment; wherein, the Word of your Lord is justified concerning those who disbelieve and will dwell in the Eternal Fire.

Verses 10:33-34 give the question of this article and talk about it
The meanings of the verses 10:33-34
Verse 10:33 says:
Thus, just as those are turned away from faith so, the Word of your Lord is justified concerning those who are wicked, those who disbelieve,
What is the Word of your Lord that is mentioned herein?
It is in the verse 32:13; it says:
Verily I shall fill Hell with jinn and mankind together, that they do not believe.
In other words, the verse says: thus is the Word of your Lord to impose His chastisement is justified, enjoined concerning those who do wrong, concerning the disbelievers who will dwell in the Eternal Fire: that they do not as it is in Allah’s foreknowledge.
Verse 10:34 says:
Say to them, O Muhammad:
Is there of those whom you associate with your Lord one that can originate creation, then recreated it?’
Is there of your partners, your idols whom you ascribe unto Allah one that produces Creation e.g. from a sperm drop and imbues it with the spirit and then reproduces it after death, on the Day of Judgment?
If they answer you, fine, if not Say: Allah produces creation from a sperm drop, then reproduces it; then brings back to life on the Day of Judgment.
How then are you deviated? turned away from worshipping Him, despite proof having been established.
How then, are you misled, from whence you invent lies?
It is also said that this means: See, O Muhammad, how they are misled by lies!
It is interesting that this verse is talking about the creation and the repetition of the creation.
This is what we call today cycling and recycling of the creation.
It is well known from the scientific point of view that the cycling and recycling of the creation is the key for continuation of life on the earth.
Cycling occurs for almost everything on the earth e.g. water, minerals, plants, fungi, microbes etc.
