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 To warn the living*, and to prove the Word against disbelievers. (Only the believers are deemed alive in Allah’s sight.) 70 See they not that it is We Who have created for them - among the things which Our hands have fashioned - cattle, which are under their dominion?- 71 And that We have subjected them to their (use)? of them some do carry them and some they eat: 72 And they have (other) profits from them (besides), and they get (milk) to drink. Will they not then be grateful? 73 But they have taken besides Allah [false] deities that perhaps they would be helped. 74 They have not the power to help them: but they will be brought up (before Our Judgment-seat) as a troop (to be condemned). 75 Muhammad, let not their words annoy you. We certainly know whatever they conceal or reveal. 76 Has not man regarded how that We created him of a sperm-drop? Then lo, he is a manifest adversary. 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 Say: 'He shall quicken them, who originated them the first time; He knows all creation, 79 He who produces for you fire out of the green tree, so that, lo! you kindle [your fires] therewith." 80 And is it not possible for the One Who created the heavens and the earth to create the likes of them? It is surely possible, why not? And He is the Great Creator, the All Knowing of everything. 81 His command, when He intends anything, is only to say to it: Be, so it is. 82 So glory to Him in Whose hands is the dominion of all things: and to Him will ye be all brought back. 83
