    And since the Peerless Creator wastes nothing, He does nothing in vain. He even utilizes in the creatures of springtime the material dŽbris of those of the previous autumn, who, having accomplished their duties, have died, including them in their construction. For sure, according to the meaning of, On the Day the earth will be changed into another earth,(*[1]) and the indication of, But, indeed, the life of the hereafter, that is the true life,(*[2]) it is indeed a requirement of wisdom that the particles of the earth, which are inanimate and unconscious yet perform important duties in this world, should be utilized and included in some of the constructions of the hereafter, the stones, the trees, and all things of which will most certainly be animate and conscious. For to leave in the world the particles of the world when it has been destroyed or to cast them into non-existence would be wasteful. And from this truth, the tip of truly mighty ‘Law of Wisdom’ is apparent.
