Al-Ghaafir 40:67

Read the whole surah

هُوَ ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَكُم مِّن تُرَابٖ ثُمَّ مِن نُّطۡفَةٖ ثُمَّ مِنۡ عَلَقَةٖ ثُمَّ يُخۡرِجُكُمۡ طِفۡلٗا ثُمَّ لِتَبۡلُغُوٓاْ أَشُدَّكُمۡ ثُمَّ لِتَكُونُواْ شُيُوخٗاۚ وَمِنكُم مَّن يُتَوَفَّىٰ مِن قَبۡلُۖ وَلِتَبۡلُغُوٓاْ أَجَلٗا مُّسَمّٗى وَلَعَلَّكُمۡ تَعۡقِلُونَ

Rowwad Translation Center

It is He Who created you from dust[1], then from a sperm drop[2], then from a clinging clot[3]. Then He brings you out as an infant, so that you may reach your age of full strength, then you become old, even though some of you may die earlier – and so that you may reach an appointed term[4], and so that you may understand.

Notes

[1] i.e., your father Adam. [2] i.e., the union of male and female gametes, sperm and egg; the zygote. [3] Which resembles a leech. [4] That is decreed for your death.
