If We extend anyone's life, We reverse his development. Can they not use their reason? 68 And We have not taught him poetry, nor it befitteth him. This is but an admonition and a Recital luminous: 69 to warn all who are truly alive, and to justify the word [God's verdict] against the deniers. 70 Do they not see that We have created for them from what Our hands have made, grazing livestock, and [then] they are their owners? 71 And that We have subjected them to their (use)? of them some do carry them and some they eat: 72 Benefits and (divers) drinks have they from them. Will they not then give thanks? 73 Yet they have taken, apart from God, gods; haply they might be helped. 74 They cannot help them, for them (the so called) army are brought (with them to Hell). 75 So do not let their saying grieve thee; assuredly We know what they keep secret and what they publish. 76 Has the human not seen how We created him from a drop (of sperm)? Yet he is a clear opponent. 77 And he makes comparisons for Us, and forgets his own (origin and) Creation: He says, "Who can give life to (dry) bones and decomposed ones (at that)?" 78 Say thou: He shall quicken them Who brought them forth for the first time, and He is of every kind of creation the Knower! 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 them? Yea! and He is the Creator (of all), the Knower. 81 Whenever He wills a thing, He just commands it “Be” and 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
