Holy Qur’an 22:6
O people, if you are in doubt concerning the Resurrection, then consider that We have indeed created you from dust, then from a sperm-drop, then from clotted blood, then from a lump of flesh, partly formed and partly unformed, in order that We may make Our power manifest to you. And We cause what We will to remain in the wombs for an appointed term; then We bring you forth as babes; then We rear you that you may attain to your age of full strength. And there are some of you who are caused to die prematurely, and there are others among you who are driven to the worst part of life with the result that they know nothing after having had knowledge. And thou seest the earth lifeless, but when We send down water thereon, it stirs and swells, and grows every kind of beauteous vegetation.

Holy Qur’an 22:11
This is because of what thy hands have sent on before, and Allah is not unjust to His servants.
Translation: Maulawi Sher Ali (Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat)
Holy Qur’an 22:12
And among men there is he who serves Allah, standing as it were on the verge. Then if good befall him, he is content therewith; and if there befall him a trial, he returns to his former way. He loses in this world as well as in the Hereafter. That is an evident loss.

Translation: Maulawi Sher Ali (Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat)
Holy Qur’an 22:19
Hast thou not seen that to Allah submits whosoever is in the heavens and whosoever is in the earth, and the sun, and the moon, and the stars, and the mountains, and the trees, and the beasts, and many of mankind? But there are many who become deserving of punishment. And whomsoever Allah disgraces, none can raise him to honour. Verily, Allah does what He pleases.
Translation: Maulawi Sher Ali (Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat)
