quran:76:28 –

We have created them and strengthened their forms, and when We will, We can change their likenesses with ˹complete˺ alteration.  

We created them and made firm their frames, their limbs and their joints, and, whenever We will, We can completely replace them with others like them, in terms of their created form, in place of them, by destroying them (tabdīlan, ‘completely’, is for emphasis; idhā, ‘when’, functions in the sense of in, ‘if’, similar to ˹where God says in several places˺, in yasha’ yudhhibkum, If He will, He can take you away ˹cf. Q. 14:19˺; but because He, exalted be He, has not willed this, it has not happened thus far).
القرآن:٧٦:٢٨ –

نَحْنُ خَلَقْنَاهُمْ وَشَدَدْنَا أَسْرَهُمْ ۖ وَإِذَا شِئْنَا بَدَّلْنَا أَمْثَالَهُمْ تَبْدِيلًا  

{نحن خلقناهم وشددنا} قوينا {أسرهم} أعضاءهم ومفاصلهم {وإذا شئنا بدلنا} جعلنا {أمثالهم} في الخلقة بدلا منهم بأن نهلكهم {تبديلا} تأكيد ووقعت إذا موقع إن نحو إن يشأ يذهبكم لأنه تعالى لم يشأ ذلك وإذا لمّا يقع.
