Your creation and your resurrection will not be but as that of a single soul. Indeed, Allah is Hearing and Seeing.
And your creation or your resurrection is in no wise but as an individual soul: for Allah is He Who hears and sees (all things).
To create all of you or to resurrect all of you is to Him like (creating or resurrecting) a single person. Verily Allah is All-Hearing, All-Seeing.
The creation of you all and the resurrection of you all are only as (the creation and resurrection of) a single person. Verily, Allah is All-Hearer, All-Seer.
Your creation and your raising (from the dead) are only as (the creation and the raising of) a single soul. Lo! Allah is Hearer, Knower.

Creating and resurrecting all of you is only like creating or resurrecting a single soul: God is all hearing and all seeing.
تم سب کی پیدائش اور مرنے کے بعد جلانا ایسا ہی ہے جیسے ایک جی کا، بیشک اللہ تعالیٰ سننے واﻻ دیکھنے واﻻ ہے

Ala-Maududi
(31:28) To create all of you or to resurrect all of you is to Him like (creating or resurrecting) a single person. Verily Allah is All-Hearing, All-Seeing.[49]
49. That is, the appearance and alternation of the day and night consistently and regularly by itself shows that the sun and the moon have been subjected to a system. The sun and the moon have been mentioned here in particular because both these are the most prominent bodies of the heaven, which man has been worshiping as deities since the earliest times, and which many people worship as gods even today. The fact, however, is that Allah has bound all the stars and planets of the universe including the earth into an unalterable system from which they cannot deviate even by an inch.
