Exegesis of the saying of Allah the Exalted: (We created you, so why do you not believe?)

Then He, the Exalted, said:
We have created you, so why do you not believe?نَحْنُ خَلَقْنَاكُمْ فَلَوْلا تُصَدِّقُونَ
[Al-Waqi'ah: 57] This is a matter that no one denies, that our Creator is Allah. Even the polytheists who associate partners with Allah, if they are asked who created them?They said: They say: Allah. That is,
We created youنَحْنُ خَلَقْنَاكُمْ
the first time,
So why do you not believe?فَلَوْلا تُصَدِّقُونَ
meaning in your second creation. Here, "why do you not believe" means "why do you not believe." It was obligatory for them, since they believed that their Creator the first time was Allah, to believe in the other creation, because the One capable of the first creation is capable of the second creation, a fortiori.As Allah the Mighty and Majestic said:
And it is He who begins creation; then He repeats it, and that is [even] easier for Himوَهُوَ الَّذِي يَبْدَأُ الْخَلْقَ ثُمَّ يُعِيدُهُ وَهُوَ أَهْوَنُ عَلَيْهِ
[Ar-Rum: 27] And Allah the Mighty and Majestic said:
And that [incumbent] upon Him is the next creationوَأَنَّ عَلَيْهِ النَّشْأَةَ الأُخْرَى
[An-Najm: 47] So when did We create you? Today or in the past?
So why do you not believe?فَلَوْلا تُصَدِّقُونَ
That is: So why do you not believe that We will recreate you, create you a second time, because the One capable of the first creation is capable of creation in the second time.
