The physical growth of those whom We grant a long life will be reversed. Will you then not understand? 68 And We have not taught him poetry, nor it befitteth him. This is but an admonition and a Recital luminous: 69 that he may warn whosoever is living, and that the Word may be realized against the unbelievers. 70 Are they, then, not aware that it is for them that We have created, among all the things which Our hands have wrought, the domestic animals of which they are [now] masters? 71 And We have subdued them unto them so that some of them they have for riding and some they eat. 72 Benefits and (divers) drinks have they from them. Will they not then give thanks? 73 And they have taken gods besides Allah that they may be helped. 74 They are not able to help them, and they [themselves] are for them soldiers in attendance. 75 So let not their speech grieve thee (O Muhammad). Lo! We know what they conceal and what proclaim. 76 Hath not man seen that We have created him from a drop of seed? Yet lo! he is an open opponent. 77 And he hath coined for Us a similitude, and hath forgotten the fact of his creation, saying: Who will revive these bones when they have rotted away? 78 Say: "He who brought them into being in the first instance will give them life [once again,] seeing that He has full knowledge of every act of creation: 79 He who produces fire for you from green trees and from this you kindle fire." 80 Is He who created the heavens and earth not able to create others like these people? Of course He is! He is indeed the Supreme Creator, the All Knowing: 81 Verily, His Command, when He intends a thing, is only that He says to it, "Be!" and it is! 82 So all glory to Him who holds all power over everything, to whom you will go back in the end. 83
