Indeed, all it takes when We will to bring anything into existence is simply to say to it: Be and it is
Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi
(16:40) (As regards its possibility.) when We desire to bring a thing into existence, We need only say, "Be", and it is there. *36
Indeed, Our word to a thing when We intend it is but meaning
*36) This is the answer to those who imagined that it was the most difficult thing to raise the dead, and that, too, to raise together at once all the people who had died at any time. They have been told that it is an easy thing for Allah, Who has the power to bring into existence anything He desires, merely by His command, "Be", for He does not stand in need of any provisions, any means and any favourable environment for this. His mere Command produces necessary provisions, means and environment. This world was brought into existence by His mere Command, "Be", and likewise the Next world will at once come into existence by His single Command.
