quran:40:57 –

The creation of the heavens and earth is greater than the creation of mankind, but most of the people do not know.  

The following was revealed regarding the deniers of resurrection: Assuredly the creation of the heavens and the earth, as an ˹unprecedented˺ first act, is greater than the creation of mankind, a second time — which is the restoration ˹of them after death˺; but most people, namely, the disbelievers of Mecca, do not know, this, and so they are like the blind, whereas those who know it are like those who have sight.
القرآن:٤٠:٥٧ –

لَخَلْقُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ أَكْبَرُ مِنْ خَلْقِ النَّاسِ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ  

{لخلق السماوات والأرض} ابتداءً {أكبر من خلق الناس} مرة ثانية، وهي الإعادة {ولكن أكثر الناس} أي كفار مكة {لا يعلمون} ذلك فهم كالأعمى، ومن يعلمه كالبصير.
