وَمِنْ ءَايَٰتِهِۦٓ أَنْ خَلَقَكُم مِّن تُرَابٍ ثُمَّ إِذَآ أَنتُم بَشَرٌ تَنتَشِرُونَ
And of His signs is that He created you from dust; then, suddenly you were human beings dispersing [throughout the earth].

Revelation context of the surah
Surah-wideAr-Rum is Meccan. It was revealed after Sasanian Persia inflicted a heavy defeat on Byzantium (roughly 613-619) and foretold that the Romans would prevail within a few years. The fulfilment of this prediction, which reports associate with the years around Badr, was counted as evidence of the truth of revelation.
