Translation

Have they not looked at the heaven above them - how We structured it and adorned it and [how] it has no rifts?

Verse interpretation (Tafsir)

Do these rejectors of the resurrection not ponder over the sky above them: how I created it, made it and adorned it with the stars I placed in it, and it does not have any cracks to spoil it? The being who created this sky is not incapable of resurrecting the dead alive.
