Transliteration:( Allaahu yabda'ul khalqa summa yu'eeduhoo summa ilaihi turja'oon )
"Allah originates the creation, then He reproduces [21] it, then you shall be returned to Him. [22]"
This verse emphasizes that Allah is the Originator of creation, and after everything perishes, He will bring it back again.
The logic is clear: if Allah has the power to create something from nothing, then recreating it is even easier. Therefore, if people accept that Allah created them, they should not deny His ability to resurrect them on the Day of Judgement.
Eventually, all will return to Allah—whether willingly or unwillingly.
As Moulana Rumi beautifully says:
"A friend goes to his friend cheerfully."
This implies that it is better to return to Allah willingly, with joy and submission, rather than resisting until forced.
The verse reminds us that while people may choose obedience or disobedience in this life, the final return to Allah is inevitable. Hence, one should prepare for that meeting with love and readiness.
11. Allah originates the creation, then He will repeat it, then to Him you will be returned. 12. And on the Day when the Hour will be established, the criminals will be plunged into destruction with despair. 13. No intercessors will they have from those whom they made equal with Allah, and they will reject and deny their partners. 14. And on the Day when the Hour will be established — that Day shall they be separated. 15. Then as for those who believed and did righteous good deeds, such shall be honored and made to enjoy a luxurious life in a Garden of Delight. 16. And as for those who disbelieved and denied Our Ayat, and the meeting of the Hereafter, such shall be brought forth to the torment.) Allah said:
(Allah originates the creation, then He will repeat it,) Just as He was able to create it in the first place, so He is also able to repeat it.
(then to Him you will be returned.) on the Day of Resurrection, when each will be requited according to his deeds. Then Allah says:
(And on the Day when the Hour will be established, the criminals will be plunged into destruction with despair.) Ibn `Abbas said, “The sinners will be filled with despair.” Mujahid said, “The sinners will be exposed;” according to another report he said, “The sinners will grieve.”
(No intercessors will they have from those whom they made equal with Allah,) means, the gods whom they used to worship instead of Allah will not intercede for them; they will reject them and betray them despite their desperate need of them. Then Allah says:
(And on the Day when the Hour will be established — that Day shall (all men) be separated.) Qatadah said: “By Allah, this refers to the separation after which there will be no reunion.” In other words, if one person is taken up to the highest heights and another is sent down to the lowest depths of Hell, that is the last they will ever see of one another. Allah says:
(Then as for those who believed and did righteous good deeds, such shall be honored and made to enjoy a luxurious life in a Garden of Delight.) Mujahid and Qatadah said, “This means, they will enjoy a life of luxury.”
(30:11) Allah creates in the first instance and will later repeat it.[13] Thereafter it is to Him that you shall be sent back.
13. Though this thing has been put forward as a claim, it contains the basis of the claim too. Common sense testifies that the One Who can originate creation, can reproduce the same creation far more easily. The origination of the creation is an actuality which exists before everybody, and the disbelievers and the mushriks also admit that this is the work of Allah alone: “Now it will be clearly absurd on their part to think that God Who has originated this creation, cannot reproduce it.”
