And whomever We bring to an old age, We reverse him in creation; so do they not understand? 68 And We have not taught him poetry, nor is it meet for him; it is nothing but a reminder and a plain Quran, 69 To warn the living*, and to prove the Word against disbelievers. (Only the believers are deemed alive in Allah’s sight.) 70 Observe they not that We have created for them, of that which Our hands have worked, cattle: so that they are their owners. 71 Whom We made subservient to them so that some of them they ride 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 And yet they have taken gods, other than Allah, so that they might be helped! 74 They cannot help them, for them (the so called) army are brought (with them to Hell). 75 So let not their speech grieve you. Indeed, We know what they conceal and what they declare. 76 Does man not see that We created him of a sperm drop, and lo! he is flagrantly contentious? 77 And he hath coined for Us a similitude, and hath forgotten the fact of his creation, saying: Who will revive these bones when they have rotted away? 78 Say: "He who brought them into being in the first instance will give them life [once again,] seeing that He has full knowledge of every act of creation: 79 Who hath appointed for you fire from the green tree, and behold! ye kindle from it. 80 How can He who created the heavens and the earth not be able to create others like them? Why not? He is the real creator all-knowing. 81 When He wills a thing He has only to say: "Be," and it is. 82 Exaltations to Him in whose Hand is the Kingdom of all things, and to Him you will be returned. 83
