He who has created for the first time all beings from nothing and without any model.
“Or, WHO ORIGINATES CREATION, then repeats it, and who gives you sustenance from heaven and earth? (Can there be another) god besides Allah? Say, “Bring forth your argument, if ye are telling the truth!”
(27:64)The Holy Quran
“See they not how ALLAH ORIGINATES CREA- TION, then repeats it: truly that is easy for Allah. Say: “Travel through the earth and see how ALLAH DID ORIGINATE CREATION; so will Allah produce a later creation: for Allah has power over all things.”
(29:19-20) The Holy Quran

Allah is the originator of all creation. He is the founder of creation.
He begins all things. He initiates all creation.
