To whoever We give a long life We make him stoop. Do they not understand? 68 We did not teach him (Muhammad) poetry, nor was he supposed to be a poet. It is only the word (of God) and the illustrious Quran 69 To warn the living*, and to prove the Word against disbelievers. (Only the believers are deemed alive in Allah’s sight.) 70 Have they not seen how that We have created for them of that Our hands wrought cattle that they own? 71 We have subjected the cattle to them so that some of them they ride and eat the flesh of others. 72 And they have (other) profits from them (besides), and they get (milk) to drink. Will they not then be grateful? 73 And they have appointed Gods other than Allah, that perhaps they may be helped! 74 They cannot help them, but they will be brought forward as a troop against those who worshipped them (at the time of Reckoning). 75 So do not let their sayings grieve you. Surely, We have knowledge of what they hide and all that they reveal. 76 Does not man see that We created him from a drop. Yet there he is, flagrantly contentious, 77 And he has struck for Us a similitude and forgotten his creation; he says, 'Who shall quicken the bones when they are 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 has made for you the fire (to burn) from the green tree, so that with it you kindle (fire). 80 Is not He who created the heavens and the earth able to create the like of these? Yea! He is the Supreme Creator, the Knower. 81 When He wills a thing He has only to say: "Be," and it is. 82 Holy is He Who has full control over everything, and to Him you shall all be recalled. 83
