cycle of life

۞ مِنْهَا خَلَقْنَـٰكُمْ وَفِيهَا نُعِيدُكُمْ وَمِنْهَا نُخْرِجُكُمْ تَارَةً أُخْرَىٰ

From it [i.e., the earth] We created you, and into it We will return you, and from it We will extract you another time.

وَمَن نُّعَمِّرْهُ نُنَكِّسْهُ فِى ٱلْخَلْقِ ۖ أَفَلَا يَعْقِلُونَ

And he to whom We grant long life We reverse in creation; so will they not understand?

فَجَعَلَهُۥ غُثَآءً أَحْوَىٰ

And [then] makes it black stubble.
