Hud 7

وَهُوَ الَّذ۪ي خَلَقَ السَّمٰوَاتِ وَالْاَرْضَ ف۪ي سِتَّةِ اَيَّامٍ وَكَانَ عَرْشُهُ عَلَى الْمَٓاءِ لِيَبْلُوَكُمْ اَيُّكُمْ اَحْسَنُ عَمَلًاۜ وَلَئِنْ قُلْتَ اِنَّكُمْ مَبْعُوثُونَ مِنْ بَعْدِ الْمَوْتِ لَيَقُولَنَّ الَّذ۪ينَ كَفَرُٓوا اِنْ هٰذَٓا اِلَّا سِحْرٌ مُب۪ينٌ ۝٧

7It is He who created the heavens and the earth in six stages. He had begun life—the greatest sign of His sovereignty—with water, in order to test which of you would do the best deeds. And if you say to them, "You will certainly be raised again after death," the disbelievers who cover up that truth will say: "This is nothing but plain sorcery/deception."
