إِنَّ اللَّهَ فَالِقُ الْحَبِّ وَالنَّوَىٰ ۖ يُخْرِجُ الْحَيَّ مِنَ الْمَيِّتِ وَمُخْرِجُ الْمَيِّتِ مِنَ الْحَيِّ ۚ ذَٰلِكُمُ اللَّهُ ۖ فَأَنَّىٰ تُؤْفَكُونَ

Abdullah Yusuf Ali
It is Allah Who causeth the seed-grain and the date-stone to split and sprout. He causeth the living to issue from the dead, and He is the one to cause the dead to issue from the living. That is Allah: then how are ye deluded away from the truth?
Ahmed Ali
Indeed it is God who splits up the seed and the kernel, and brings forth the living from the dead, the dead from the living. This is God: So whither do you stray?

إِنَّ اللَّهَ فَالِقُ الْحَبِّ وَالنَّوَىٰ ۖ يُخْرِجُ الْحَيَّ مِنَ الْمَيِّتِ وَمُخْرِجُ الْمَيِّتِ مِنَ الْحَيِّ ۚ ذَٰلِكُمُ اللَّهُ ۖ فَأَنَّىٰ تُؤْفَكُونَ
6:95 Here are arguments to prove the need for Revelations sent by Allâh to His Prophets. These revelations bring to life people who were morally dead. The preaching of the Prophets is likened to the sowing of the seed that grows into a large tree. يُخْرِجُ الْحَيَّ مِنَ الْمَيِّتِ “Bringing forth the living out of the lifeless” means bringing back to life one who is spiritually dead. It is the moral awakening, which accompanies the advent of the Prophets. Similarly, bringing forth the lifeless from the living refers the spiritual death of those who were previously granted spiritual life through a Divine Revelation.
