Transliteration:( Fal yanzuril insaanu mimma khuliq )
5. For those who reject the Day of Judgement. There were two doubts about the Day of Judgement:
1. After the limbs of countless human beings, which had spread in the oceans and on land to bring them together and to select them in such a manner, that no persons' limbs get mixed with one another is impossible.
2. To give these limbs human form again is not possible. Both these doubts have been described in this verse that your botanical and animal limbs from which the sperm was made, then your bodies were formed, were different species in the world. We brought these together and gave human shape. The grain, the vegetation, or the meat from which a person's sperm was to be made could not get into the stomach of another person. Likewise, in the future, you would be created the second time.

Please refer to Surah Tariq ayat 1 which provides the complete commentary from verse 1 through 10.
(86:5) So let man consider of what he was created.[2]
2. After inviting man to ponder over the heavens, he is now being invited to consider his own self and see how he has been created, who is it who selects one spermatozoon from among billions of spermatozoa emitted by the father and combines it at some time with one ovum out of a large number of the ova produced by the mother, and thus causes a particular human being to be conceived? Then, who is it who after conception develops it gradually in the mother’s womb until it is delivered in the form of a living child? Then, who is it who in the mother’s womb itself brings about a certain proportion and harmony between its bodily structure and its physical and mental capabilities? Then, who is it who watches over it continuously from birth till death, protects it from disease, accidents and calamities and provides him with countless means of life and opportunities for survival in the world of which he is not even conscious, not to speak of having the power to provide these for himself. Is all this happening without the planning and supervision of One God?
