If We grant long life to any, We cause him to be reversed in nature: Will they not then 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 warn him who would have life, and (that) the word may prove true against the unbelievers. 70 Do they not see that We have created for them of what Our Hands have created, the cattle, so that 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 they have taken beside Allah gods, hoping that haply they may be succoured. 74 It is not in their power to help them; but they (the worshippers) are unto them a host in arms. 75 Muhammad, let not their words annoy you. We certainly know whatever they conceal or reveal. 76 Beholdest not man that We have created him from a sperm? Yet lo! he is a manifest disputer? 77 And he strikes out a likeness for Us and forgets his own creation. Says he: Who will give life to the bones when they are rotten? 78 Say: He will give life to them Who brought them into existence at first, and He is cognizant of all creation 79 who has made for you out of the green tree fire and lo, from it you kindle.' 80 Is not He who created the heavens and the earth able to create the like of these? Yea! He is the Supreme Creator, the Knower. 81 when He decrees a thing, He need only say, "Be!" and it is. 82 So glory be to Him who has control over all things. It is to Him that you will all be brought back. 83
