وَءَايَةٌۭ لَّهُمُ ٱلْأَرْضُ ٱلْمَيْتَةُ أَحْيَيْنَٰهَا وَأَخْرَجْنَا مِنْهَا حَبًّۭا فَمِنْهُ يَأْكُلُونَ
And a sign for them is the dead earth. We have brought it to life and brought forth from it grain, and from it they eat.

Ibn Kathīr (abridged)
Proof of the Creator of the Universe and of Life after Death
Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, says:
وَءَايَةٌ لَّهُمُ
(And a sign for them) means, evidence for them of the existence of the Creator and His perfect power and ability to resurrect the dead,
الاٌّرْضُ الْمَيْتَةُ
(is the dead land.) means, when it is dead and arid, with no vegetation, then Allah sends water upon it, it is stirred (to life), and it swells and puts forth every lovely kind (of growth). Allah says:
Sadd blocks distracting apps around the five prayers. Every deliberate bypass costs you a written niyyah — and, if you choose, a real ṣadaqah. The Qur'ān, prayer times, qibla and tasbīḥ all work offline.
