And he to whom We grant long life We reverse in creation; so will they not understand? 68 And We have not taught him (Muhammad) poetry, nor is it meet for him. This is naught else than a Reminder and a Lecture making plain, 69 That it may give admonition to any (who are) alive, and that the charge may be proved against those who reject (Truth). 70 Have they not seen what We have created from the labor of Our own hands? We have given them cattle. 71 and that We have subjected them to men's will, so that some of them they may use for riding and of some they may eat, 72 They derive a variety of benefits and drinks from them. Will they, then, not give thanks? 73 They set up deities apart from Allah, hoping that they will receive help from them. 74 They are not able to help them, and they [themselves] are for them soldiers in attendance. 75 So let not their speech grieve you. Indeed, We know what they conceal and what they declare. 76 Doth not man see that it is We Who created him from sperm? yet behold! he (stands forth) as an open 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 them life who produced them the first time; and He is, of all creation, Knowing." 79 Who gave you fire from a green tree, with which you ignite the flame." 80 Is He who created the heavens and earth not able to create others like these people? Of course He is! He is indeed the Supreme Creator, the All Knowing: 81 His affair, when He intendeth a thing, is only that He saith unto it: be, and it becometh. 82 Therefore Purity is to Him in Whose Hand* is the control over all things and it is towards Him that you will be returned. (Used as a metaphor to mean Power). 83
