(Allah created you from dust) He created you from Adam and Adam is from dust, (then from a little fluid) the sperm drops of your fathers, (then He made you pairs (the male and female). No female beareth) a child (or bringeth forth) gives birth after the full period of pregnancy or prematurely (save with His knowledge) save with the knowledge and command of Allah.

Al-Jalalayn Commentary
And God created you from dust by having created your father Adam from it then from a drop of seminal fluid in other words from sperm by creating his seed from it; then He made you pairs males and females. And no female bears or brings forth except with His knowledge illā bi-‘ilmihi is a circumstantial qualifier in other words ‘except that it is known by Him’ and no long-living person is given long life in other words the life of none is increased for one who has a long life nor is anything diminished of his life in other words of the life of that same long-living person or some other long-living person but it is recorded in a Book namely the Preserved Tablet. Surely that is easy for God.
