Qur'an 64:3 At-Taghabun

خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ بِٱلْحَقِّ وَصَوَّرَكُمْ فَأَحْسَنَ صُوَرَكُمْ ۖ وَإِلَيْهِ ٱلْمَصِيرُ

He created the heavens and earth in truth and formed you and perfected your forms; and to Him is the [final] destination.

Saheeh International

What it says

Bi-l-haqq, in truth, marks the heavens and earth as made with purpose rather than left to stand for no reason. The same sentence moves from that scale down to the individual body: shaped, and shaped well. Both endpoints, the vast and the personal, run back to the same return.

Word by word

خَلَقَ khalaqa he created · ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ as-samāwāti the heavens · وَٱلْأَرْضَ wal-arḍa and the earth · بِٱلْحَقِّ bil-ḥaqq in truth · وَصَوَّرَكُمْ wa-ṣawwarakum and shaped you · فَأَحْسَنَ fa-aḥsana and made good · صُوَرَكُمْ ṣuwarakum your forms · وَإِلَيْهِ wa-ilayhi and to him · ٱلْمَصِيرُ al-maṣīr is the return
