But [let them always remember that] if We lengthen a human being's days, We also cause him to decline in his powers [when he grows old]: will they not, then, use their reason? 68 We have not instructed the (Prophet) in Poetry, nor is it meet for him: this is no less than a Message and a Qur'an making things clear: 69 that he may warn the living, and so that Judgement may be passed against the unbelievers. 70 Observe they not that We have created for them, of that which Our hands have worked, cattle: so that they are their owners. 71 And that We have subjected them to their (use)? of them some do carry them and some they eat: 72 They derive a variety of benefits and drinks from them. Will they, then, not give thanks? 73 Yet they take (for worship) gods other than Allah, (hoping) that they might be helped! 74 It is not in their power to help them; but they (the worshippers) are unto them a host in arms. 75 Muhammad, let not their words annoy you. We certainly know whatever they conceal or reveal. 76 Beholdest not man that We have created him from a sperm? Yet lo! he is a manifest disputer? 77 He strikes for Us a similitude and forgot his own creation. He says: “Who will quicken the bones when they have decayed?” 78 (Muhammad), tell him, "He who gave them life in the first place will bring them back to life again. He has the best knowledge of all creatures. 79 He who produces for you fire out of the green tree, so that, lo! you kindle [your fires] therewith." 80 Is, then, He who has created the heavens and the earth not able to create [anew] the like of those [who have died]? Yea, indeed - for He alone is the all-knowing Creator: 81 Whenever He wills a thing, He just commands it “Be” and it is. 82 Holy is He Who has full control over everything, and to Him you shall all be recalled. 83
