Surah Rum ayat 20 Tafsir Quran 30:20

﴿وَمِنْ آيَاتِهِ أَنْ خَلَقَكُم مِّن تُرَابٍ ثُمَّ إِذَا أَنتُم بَشَرٌ تَنتَشِرُونَ﴾
[ الروم: 20]

30:20 And of His signs is that He created you from dust; then, suddenly you were human beings dispersing [throughout the earth].

And of His signs exalted be He indicating His power is that He created you in other words your origin Adam of dust then lo! you are human beings of flesh and blood spreading across the earth.

And among His visible signs and His marvels displaying Omnipotence and Authority is that He brought you to being from dust by special creation and you evolved as human beings spreading throughout the earth in various directions

Among the Signs of Allah Allah says: وَمِنْ ءَايَـتِهِ ( And among His signs ) -- which speak of His might and power, is the fact that He created your father Adam out of dust. ثُمَّ إِذَآ أَنتُمْ بَشَرٌ تَنتَشِرُونَ ( and then -- behold you are human beings scattered! ) So man's origins lie in dust, then in a despised liquid, then he is formed and becomes a clot, then a lump of flesh, then bones in the form of a human being.
Then Allah clothes the bones with flesh.
Then the soul is breathed into him and he can hear and see.
Then he comes forth from his mother's womb, small and weak, but the longer he lives, the stronger he becomes, until he reaches the age where he can build cities and strongholds, and he travels to different lands and across the seas, earning a living and amassing wealth, and he is smart and intelligent and crafty, with ideas and opinions of his own, and each one is able to achieve great things in this world and in the Hereafter according to his individual means.
Glory be to the One Who has enabled them and made it easy for them to learn all kinds of skills for earning a living, and has caused them to vary in their levels of knowledge and intellectual ability, and in how handsome or ugly, rich or poor they are, and in whether they are blessed and doomed.
Allah says: وَمِنْ ءَايَـتِهِ أَنْ خَلَقَكُمْ مِّن تُرَابٍ ثُمَّ إِذَآ أَنتُمْ بَشَرٌ تَنتَشِرُونَ ( And among His signs is this that He created you from dust, and then -- behold you are human beings scattered! ) Imam Ahmad recorded that Abu Musa said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:
«إِنَّ اللهَ خَلَقَ آدَمَ مِنْ قَبْضَةٍ قَبَضَهَا مِنْ جَمِيع الْأَرْضِ، فَجَاءَ بَنُو آدَمَ عَلَى قَدْرِ الْأَرْضِ، جَاءَ مِنْهُمُ الْأَبْيَضُ وَالْأَحْمَرُ وَالْأَسْوَدُ وَبَيْنَ ذَلِكَ، وَالْخَبِيثُ وَالطَّيِّبُ، وَالسَّهْلُ وَالْحَزْنُ وَبَيْنَ ذَلِك»
( Allah created Adam from a handful taken from throughout the earth.
Hence the sons of Adam vary as the earth varies, so they are white and red and black and colors in between, evil and good, easy-going or difficult -- or something in between. )" This was also recorded by Abu Dawud and At-Tirmidhi, who said, "This Hadith is Hasan Sahih." Allah said: وَمِنْ ءايَـتِهِ أَنْ خَلَقَ لَكُم مِّنْ أَنفُسِكُمْ أَزْوَجاً ( And among His signs is this that He created for you wives from among yourselves, ) meaning, `He created females of your own kind, to be wives for you.' لِّتَسْكُنُواْ إِلَيْهَا ( that you may find repose in them, ) This is like the Ayah, هُوَ الَّذِى خَلَقَكُمْ مِّن نَّفْسٍ وَحِدَةٍ وَجَعَلَ مِنْهَا زَوْجَهَا لِيَسْكُنَ إِلَيْهَا ( It is He Who has created you from a single person, and He has created from him his wife, in order that he might enjoy the pleasure of living with her ) ( 7:189 ).
This refers to Hawwa'.
Allah created her from Adam, from the short rib on his left.
If Allah had made all of Adam's progeny male, and created the females from another kind, such as from Jinn or animals, there would never have been harmony between them and their spouses.
There would have been revulsion if the spouses had been from a different kind.
Out of Allah's perfect mercy He made their wives from their own kind, and created love and kindness between them.
For a man stays with a woman because he loves her, or because he feels compassion towards her if they have a child together, or because she needs him to take care of her, etc. إِنَّ فِى ذلِكَ لآيَـتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ ( Verily, in that are indeed signs for a people who reflect. )

(30:20) And of His *26 Signs is that He created you from dust and behold, you became human beings, and are multiplying around (the earth). *27

And of His signs is that He meaning

*26) It should be noted that from here to the end of verse 27, the Signs of Allah that are being mentioned point, on the one hand, to the possibility and occurrence of the life hereafter, in the context of the foregoing discourse, and on the other, the same Sings also point to the reality that this universe is neither Godless nor under many gods, but One God alone is its Creator, Disposer, Master and Ruler, except for Whom there should be no other deity of man.
Thus, this section ( vv.20-27 ) is fully well connected, with the discourse preceding it and the discourse following it
*27) That is.
" The stuff from which man has been created is nothing but a few dead substances which are found in the earth, like carbon, calcium, sodium and a few other elements like them.
With their combination a wonderful being, called man, has been raised up, and in him have been placed great powers of sentiments, consciousness, imagination, none of which can be traced back to any of the constituent substances of his physical being.
Then, not only has just one man so risen up by a there accident, but in him has also been placed that wonderful procreative power by which millions and billions of human beings are coming continuously into being bearing the same physical structure and capabilities and possessing countless hereditary and personal characteristics.
Therefore, O man! Does your intellect approve that this extremely wise creation has come into being of itself without the creative power of a Wise Creator? Can you say, being in your senses, that making a wonderful design of the creation of man and bringing it into effect and rendering the countless powers of the earth and heavens favourable and subservient to human life could be the result of the thinking and design of many gods? And will you be in your right senses when you think that the God Who has brought man into being from absolute nothingness, will not be able to raise the same man back to life after giving him death? "
 

Among the Signs of Allah Allah says: وَمِنْ ءَايَـتِهِ ( And among His signs ) -- which speak of His might and power, is the fact that He created your father Adam out of dust. ثُمَّ إِذَآ أَنتُمْ بَشَرٌ تَنتَشِرُونَ ( and then -- behold you are human beings scattered! ) So man's origins lie in dust, then in a despised liquid, then he is formed and becomes a clot, then a lump of flesh, then bones in the form of a human being.
Then Allah clothes the bones with flesh.
Then the soul is breathed into him and he can hear and see.
Then he comes forth from his mother's womb, small and weak, but the longer he lives, the stronger he becomes, until he reaches the age where he can build cities and strongholds, and he travels to different lands and across the seas, earning a living and amassing wealth, and he is smart and intelligent and crafty, with ideas and opinions of his own, and each one is able to achieve great things in this world and in the Hereafter according to his individual means.
Glory be to the One Who has enabled them and made it easy for them to learn all kinds of skills for earning a living, and has caused them to vary in their levels of knowledge and intellectual ability, and in how handsome or ugly, rich or poor they are, and in whether they are blessed and doomed.
Allah says: وَمِنْ ءَايَـتِهِ أَنْ خَلَقَكُمْ مِّن تُرَابٍ ثُمَّ إِذَآ أَنتُمْ بَشَرٌ تَنتَشِرُونَ ( And among His signs is this that He created you from dust, and then -- behold you are human beings scattered! ) Imam Ahmad recorded that Abu Musa said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: «إِنَّ اللهَ خَلَقَ آدَمَ مِنْ قَبْضَةٍ قَبَضَهَا مِنْ جَمِيع الْأَرْضِ، فَجَاءَ بَنُو آدَمَ عَلَى قَدْرِ الْأَرْضِ، جَاءَ مِنْهُمُ الْأَبْيَضُ وَالْأَحْمَرُ وَالْأَسْوَدُ وَبَيْنَ ذَلِكَ، وَالْخَبِيثُ وَالطَّيِّبُ، وَالسَّهْلُ وَالْحَزْنُ وَبَيْنَ ذَلِك» ( Allah created Adam from a handful taken from throughout the earth.
Hence the sons of Adam vary as the earth varies, so they are white and red and black and colors in between, evil and good, easy-going or difficult -- or something in between. )" This was also recorded by Abu Dawud and At-Tirmidhi, who said, "This Hadith is Hasan Sahih." Allah said: وَمِنْ ءايَـتِهِ أَنْ خَلَقَ لَكُم مِّنْ أَنفُسِكُمْ أَزْوَجاً ( And among His signs is this that He created for you wives from among yourselves, ) meaning, `He created females of your own kind, to be wives for you.' لِّتَسْكُنُواْ إِلَيْهَا ( that you may find repose in them, ) This is like the Ayah, هُوَ الَّذِى خَلَقَكُمْ مِّن نَّفْسٍ وَحِدَةٍ وَجَعَلَ مِنْهَا زَوْجَهَا لِيَسْكُنَ إِلَيْهَا ( It is He Who has created you from a single person, and He has created from him his wife, in order that he might enjoy the pleasure of living with her ) ( 7:189 ).
This refers to Hawwa'.

( And of His signs ) of the signs of His divine Oneness, power and prophethood of His Messenger ( is this: He created you of dust ) He created you of Adam and Adam is from dust, and you are his progeny, ( and behold you human beings ) living beings, ( ranging widely ) enjoying comfort on the face of the earth!

And among His Signs is this, that He created you (Adam) from dust, and then [Hawwa' (Eve) from Adam's rib, and then his offspring from the semen, and], - behold you are human beings scattered!
