Whomsoever We grant a long life, We reverse him in his constitution. Do they still not understand? 68 We have not instructed the (Prophet) in Poetry, nor is it meet for him: this is no less than a Message and a Qur'an making things clear: 69 to the end that it may warn everyone who is alive [of heart,] and that the word [of God] may bear witness against all who deny the truth. 70 Did they not see that We have created animals for them from Our handiwork, so they are their owners? 71 We have subjected the cattle to them so that some of them they ride and eat the flesh of others. 72 And they have therefrom other benefits and drinks. Will they not then give thanks? 73 And yet they have taken gods, other than Allah, so that they might be helped! 74 It is not in their power to help them; but they (the worshippers) are unto them a host in arms. 75 So let not their speech grieve you. Indeed, We know what they conceal and what they declare. 76 Does not man see We created him from a drop of semen? Even then he becomes an open contender, 77 And [now] he [argues about Us, and] thinks of Us in terms of comparison, and is oblivious of how he himself was created! [And so] he says, "Who could give life to bones that have crumbled to dust?" 78 Say, "He who brought them into being in the first instance will give them life again: He has knowledge of every type of creation: 79 He who produces fire for you from green trees and from this you kindle fire." 80 "Is not He Who created the heavens and the earth able to create the like thereof?" - Yea, indeed! for He is the Creator Supreme, of skill and knowledge (infinite)! 81 But His command, when He intendeth a thing, is only that He saith unto it: Be! and it is. 82 Therefor Glory be to Him in Whose hand is the dominion over all things! Unto Him ye will be brought back. 83
