Which verse and surah make clear that the end of the world and the universe will be like its beginning?
The Almighty states that on the Day of Resurrection, He will roll up the heavens as a scribe rolls up a scroll. Its stars will scatter, and its suns and moons will be wrapped up. His re-creation of the creatures will be like His initial creation of them; He is able to recreate them after their death just as He created them from nothing. His saying: (As We began the first creation, We shall repeat it) [21:104] carries two possible meanings: either it is a report about the Resurrection, meaning that just as He created them first, He will repeat them; or it is a report that every person will be resurrected on the Day of Judgment in the state in which he entered this world.
