(bi'l-haqq is semantically connected to [the action of the verb] khalaqa, 'created'). If He will, He can take you away, O mankind, and bring [about] a new creation, in your place.
"Proof that Resurrection occurs after Death
Allah says:
أَلَمۡ تَرَ أَنَّ اللّهَ خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالَارۡضَ بِالۡحقِّ
Do you not see that Allah has created the heavens and the earth with truth!
Allah affirms His ability to resurrect the bodies on the Day of Resurrection, stating that He has created the heavens and earth which are stronger than the creation of man.
Is not He Who is able to create the heavens, high, wide and strongly built, which include in them the planets and stars and the various heavenly objects and clear signs.
Is not He Who created this earth with all what it contains of land, valleys, mountains, deserts, green fields, barren lands, seas and various shapes, benefits, species and colors of trees, plants and animals
أَوَلَمۡ يَرَوۡاۡ أَنَّ اللَّهَ الَّذِى خَلَقَ السَّمَـوَتِ وَالاٌّرۡضِ وَلَمۡ يَعۡىَ بِخَلۡقِهِنَّ بِقَادِرٍ عَلَى أَن يُحۡىِ الۡمَوۡتَى بَلَى إِنَّهُ عَلَى كُلِّ شَىۡءٍ قَدِيرٌ
Do they not see that Allah, Who created the heavens and the earth, and was not wearied by their creation, is able to give life to the dead!
Yes, He surely, is able to do all things. (46:33)
أَوَلَمۡ يَرَ الاِنسَـنُ أَنَّا خَلَقۡنَـهُ مِن نُّطۡفَةٍ فَإِذَا هُوَ خَصِيمٌ مٌّبِينٌ
وَضَرَبَ لَنَا مَثَلً وَنَسِىَ خَلۡقَهُ قَالَ مَن يُحىِ الۡعِظَـمَ وَهِىَ رَمِيمٌ
قُلۡ يُحۡيِيهَا الَّذِى أَنشَأَهَأ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ وَهُوَ بِكُلِّ خَلۡقٍ عَلِيمٌ
الَّذِى جَعَلَ لَكُم مِّنَ الشَّجَرِ الاٌّخۡضَرِ نَاراً فَإِذَا أَنتُم مِّنۡه تُوقِدُونَ
أَوَلَـيۡسَ الَذِى خَلَقَ السَّمَـوتِ وَالاٌّرۡضَ بِقَـدِرٍ عَلَى أَن يَخۡلُقَ مِثۡلَهُم بَلَى وَهُوَ الۡخَلَّـقُ الۡعَلِيمُ
إِنَّمَأ أَمۡرُهُ إِذَا أَرَادَ شَيۡياً أَن يَقُولَ لَهُ كُن فَيَكُونُ
فَسُبۡحَـنَ الَّذِى بِيَدِهِ مَلَكُوتُ كُلِّ شَىۡءٍ وَإِلَيۡهِ تُرۡجَعُونَ
Does not man see that We have created him from Nutfah (drop of sperm). Yet behold he (stands forth) as an open opponent. And he puts forth for Us a parable, and forgets his own creation
He says:""Who will give life to these bones after they are rotten and have become dust""
Say:""He will give life to them Who created them for the first time! And He is the All-Knower of every creation!""
He Who produces for you fire out of the green tree, when behold you kindle therewith.
Is not He Who created the heavens and the earth, able to create the like of them!
Yes, indeed! He is the All-Knowing Supreme Creator.
Verily, His command, when He intends a thing, is only that He says to it, ""Be!"" - and it is!
So glorified is He and exalted above all that they associate with Him, and in Whose Hands is the dominion of all things:and to Him you shall be returned. (36:77-83)
Allah's statement,
إِن يَشَأۡ يُذۡهِبۡكُمۡ وَيَأۡتِ بِخَلۡقٍ جَدِيدٍ
وَمَا ذَلِكَ عَلَى اللَّهِ بِعَزِيزٍ
If He wills, He can remove you and bring (in your place) a new creation! And for Allah that is not hard or difficult.
means, it is not hard or impossible for Allah to do that. Rather, it is easy for Him, that if you defy His order, He takes you away and brings in your place another creation who is unlike you.
Allah said in other Ayat,
يأَيُّهَا النَّاسُ أَنتُمُ الۡفُقَرَاءُ إِلَى اللَّهِ وَاللَّهُ هُوَ الۡغَنِىُّ الۡحَمِيدُ
إِن يَشَأۡ يُذۡهِبۡكُـمۡ وَيَأۡتِ بِخَلۡقٍ جَدِيدٍ وَمَا ذَلِكَ عَلَى اللَّهِ بِعَزِيزٍ
O mankind!
It is you who stand in need of Allah. But Allah is Rich, Worthy of all praise. If He willed, He could destroy you and bring about a new creation. And that is not hard for Allah. (35:15-17)
الۡفُقَرَاءُ وَإِن تَتَوَلَّوۡاۡ يَسۡتَبۡدِلۡ قَوۡماً غَيۡرَكُمۡ ثُمَّ لَا يَكُونُواۡ
And if you turn away, He will exchange you for some other people and they will not be your likes. (47:38)
يأَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواۡ مَن يَرۡتَدَّ مِنكُمۡ عَن دِينِهِ فَسَوۡفَ يَأۡتِى اللَّهُ بِقَوۡمٍ يُحِبُّهُمۡ وَيُحِبُّونَهُ
O you who believe!
Whoever from among you turns back from his religion, Allah will bring a people whom He will love and they will love Him. (5:54)
and,
إِن يَشَأۡ يُذۡهِبۡكُمۡ أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ وَيَأۡتِ بِـاخَرِينَ وَكَانَ اللَّهُ عَلَى ذلِكَ قَدِيراً
If He wills, He can take you away, O people, and bring others. And Allah is Ever All-Potent over that. (4:133)"
