Quran verses about the resurrection

البعث

19 verses in 13 surahs · 3 subtopics

Resurrection is easy for Allah: these verses affirm it, recalling that He gives life to the dead earth just as He will raise the dead. They present it as an undoubted truth and set out the reasoning of those who deny it, who wonder how crumbled bones could live again, along with their grim fate; Abraham, too, asks to be shown how Allah gives life to the dead.

Al-An’am6:36

إِنَّمَا يَسْتَجِيبُ ٱلَّذِينَ يَسْمَعُونَ وَٱلْمَوْتَىٰ يَبْعَثُهُمُ ٱللَّهُ ثُمَّ إِلَيْهِ يُرْجَعُونَ ۝٣٦

Only those who hear will respond. But the dead - Allāh will resurrect them; then to Him they will be returned.

Al-Hajj22:6

ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلْحَقُّ وَأَنَّهُۥ يُحْىِ ٱلْمَوْتَىٰ وَأَنَّهُۥ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ قَدِيرٌ ۝٦

That is because Allāh is the True Reality and because He gives life to the dead and because He is over all things competent

Al-Hajj22:66

وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِىٓ أَحْيَاكُمْ ثُمَّ يُمِيتُكُمْ ثُمَّ يُحْيِيكُمْ إِنَّ ٱلْإِنسَٰنَ لَكَفُورٌ ۝٦٦

And He is the one who gave you life; then He causes you to die and then will [again] give you life. Indeed, mankind is ungrateful.
