Tafheem-ul-Quran (En) - Ash-Shura : 29
وَ مِنْ اٰیٰتِهٖ خَلْقُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَ الْاَرْضِ وَ مَا بَثَّ فِیْهِمَا مِنْ دَآبَّةٍ١ؕ وَ هُوَ عَلٰى جَمْعِهِمْ اِذَا یَشَآءُ قَدِیْرٌ۠   ۧ
Among His Signs is the creation of the heavens and the earth and the living things, which He has scattered in both: 50 He can gather them all together whenever He wills. 51
50 "In both": In both the earth and the heavens. This is a clear pointer to the fact that life does not only exist on the earth but on other planets as well. 51 That is, "Just as He has the power to scatter them, so He has also the power to gather them all together. Therefore, it is wrong to think that Resurrection cannot take place, and aII the former and the latter generations cannot be raised up and gathered all together. "
