31:28

مَّا خَلْقُكُمْ وَلَا بَعْثُكُمْ إِلَّا كَنَفْسٍ وَٰحِدَةٍ ۗ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ سَمِيعٌۢ بَصِيرٌ

mā khalqukum walā baʿthukum illā kanafsin wāḥidatin inna l-laha samīʿun baṣīrun

Your creation and your resurrection will not be but as that of a single soul. Indeed, Allāh is Hearing and Seeing.

— Saheeh International

Creating and resurrecting all of you is only like creating or resurrecting a single soul: God is all hearing and all seeing.

— M. A. S. Abdel Haleem

The creation of you all and the resurrection of you all are only as (the creation and resurrection of) a single person. Verily, Allâh is All-Hearer, All-Seer.

— Muhammad Muhsin Khan & Muhammad Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali
