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 it befitteth him. This is but an admonition and a Recital luminous: 69 by which he may warn those who are living and may let the words of God come true against the unbelievers. 70 Do they not see Our handiwork: We created for them cattle which they own? 71 And We have subdued them unto them so that some of them they have for riding and some they eat. 72 And they have therefrom other benefits and drinks. Will they not then give thanks? 73 And take other gods apart from God that they may perhaps give them help. 74 They cannot help them, though they be hosts made ready for them. 75 So do not let their sayings grieve you. Surely, We have knowledge of what they hide and all that they reveal. 76 Does not man see that We created him from a drop. Yet there he is, flagrantly contentious, 77 And he puts forth for Us a parable, and forgets his own creation. He says: "Who will give life to these bones when they have rotted away and became dust?" 78 Say: He will revive them Who produced them at the first, for He is Knower of every creation, 79 [It is] He who made for you from the green tree, fire, and then from it you ignite. 80 Is the One who has created the heavens and the earth not able to create another creature like the human being? He certainly has the power to do so. He is the Supreme Creator and is All-knowing. 81 when He decrees a thing, He need only say, "Be!" and it is. 82 So glory be to Him, in whose hand is the dominion of everything, and unto whom you shall be returned. 83
