Transliteration
Wa Huwal lazee ahyaakum summa yumeetukum summma yuheekum; innal insaana lakafoor
Translation
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.
Verse interpretation (Tafsir)
Allah is the only One Who gave you life, in that He gave you existence when you were non-existent. He will then cause death upon you when your lives expire, and then will revive you after your death to hold you to account for your deeds and requit you for them. Verily, the human is ever in denial of the bounties of Allah, despite their being so clear.
