Smacking comets into a dead land isn't going to revive anything.
No; use the actual word used: i.e "water". Not "comet".
And that's because the Quran can't science. NASA used the words "comet" and "asteroid".
NASA Wrote:Over billions of years, countless comets and asteroids have collided with Earth, enriching our planet with water. Chemical markers in the water of our oceans suggest that most of the water came from asteroids. Recent observations hint that ice, and possibly even liquid water, exists in the interiors of asteroids and comets.
In case you didn't read the article that you linked, water does not come from space as a gentle mist. It arrives as a multi-gigatonne blast scouring away all life for a thousand kilometers. It does the opposite of "revive thereby a dead land". Your water from space absurdity doesn't fit the context of your own scripture.
