He whom we bring unto old age, We reverse him in creation (making him go back to weakness after strength). Have ye then no sense? 68 We have not taught (Muhammad) to versify, nor is it worthy of him. This is nothing but a reminder and illuminating discourse, 69 That it may warn him who would have life, and (that) the word may prove true against the unbelievers. 70 Have they not seen what We have created from the labor of Our own hands? We have given them cattle. 71 We have subdued them to them, and some of them they ride, and some they eat; 72 And they derive other advantages and drinks from them. Even then they do not offer thanks, 73 And they have appointed Gods other than Allah, that perhaps they may be helped! 74 (But) they shall not be able to assist them, and they shall be a host brought up before them. 75 Muhammad, let not their words annoy you. We certainly know whatever they conceal or reveal. 76 Doth not man see that it is We Who created him from sperm? yet behold! he (stands forth) as an open adversary! 77 And he propoundeth for us a similitude, and forgetteth his creation; he saith: who shall quicken the bones when they are decayed? 78 Say, "He will give them life Who created them for the first time! for He is Well-versed in every kind of creation!- 79 who has made fire for you from the green tree with which you kindle' 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 His command, when He desires a thing, is to say to it 'Be,' and it is. 82 Holy is He Who has full control over everything, and to Him you shall all be recalled. 83
