And he presents for Us an example and forgets his [own] creation. He says, "Who will give life to bones while they are disintegrated?"

ٱلَّذِى جَعَلَ لَكُم مِّنَ ٱلشَّجَرِ ٱلْأَخْضَرِ نَارًا فَإِذَآ أَنتُم مِّنْهُ تُوقِدُونَ

[It is] He who made for you from the green tree, fire, and then from it you ignite.
