The Criterion - 25:49
That We may revive with it a dead land and water with it livestock and people whom We have created.
Watering livestock and people with the descending rain:
Prophet Jonah/10:24
The life of this world is like this example: the water We send down from the sky mixes with the plants that people and animals eat. This lasts until the earth is adorned and its inhabitants think that they have dominion over nature. Then Our command comes to it by night or by day. We make it uproot itself as if it had not possessed anything the day before. Thus do We explain the verses for a people who reflect.
The Companies/39:21
Do you not see that Allah sends down water from the sky and causes it to flow into springs in the earth, then He brings forth with it plants of various colors? Then it dries up and you see it yellow. Then He turns it to rubbish. In this is an admonition for those of understanding
The Believers/23:18
We sent down water from the sky in a certain proportion and We stored it in the earth, and We are certainly able to remove it.
The Prostration/32:27
Do they not realize that We ploughed the barren land with water and brought forth crops which they and their livestock eat? Do they not see?
The Criterion/25:48
And He it is Who sends the winds as heralds before His mercy. And We send down from the sky pure water.
The Criterion/25:49
That We may revive with it a dead land and water with it livestock and people whom We have created.
