Surah Al-Qiyamah — 75:4

بَلَىٰ قَـٰدِرِينَ عَلَىٰٓ أَن نُّسَوِّىَ بَنَانَهُۥ

Balaa qaadireena 'alaaa an nusawwiya banaanah

ضرور کریں گے (اور) ہم اس بات پر قادر ہیں کہ اس کی پور پور درست کردیں

Yes indeed — we are able to shape even his fingertips.

Reflection

The answer overshoots the question. Verse three asked about gathering scattered bones; the reply names banān, the fingers and their tips, and the verb for what will be done to them is the one used elsewhere of the original forming of a body. Reassembly is described as a second shaping, carried out to the same finish as the first.
