If We extend anyone's life, We reverse his development. Can they not use their reason? 68 We have not taught (Muhammad) to versify, nor is it worthy of him. This is nothing but a reminder and illuminating discourse, 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 And that We have subjected them to their (use)? of them some do carry them and some they eat: 72 And for them in the animals are numerous different benefits and drinks; so will they not be grateful? 73 Yet they take (for worship) gods other than Allah, (hoping) that they might be helped! 74 but they are not able to help them: rather they will be brought before God as their allied host. 75 Let not their words grieve you. We have knowledge of all that they conceal and all that they 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 parable, and forgotten his own creation. He asks: 'Who will quicken the bones after they have decayed' 78 Say: He will give life to them Who brought them into existence at first, and He is cognizant of all creation 79 He who produces fire for you from green trees and from this you kindle fire." 80 Has He Who created the heavens and the earth no power to create the likes of them? Yes, indeed, He is the Superb Creator. 81 When He wills a thing He has only to say: "Be," and it is. 82 Wherefore hallowed be He in whose hand is the governance of everything, and unto whom ye shall be returned. 83
