And whomsoever We cause to live long, We reduce (him) to an abject state in constitution; do they not then 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 that he may warn him who is alive and establish an argument against those that deny the Truth. 70 Have they not seen how We have created for them of Our handiwork the cattle, so that they are their owners, 71 And We have subjected them to them, so some of them they have to ride upon, and some of them they eat. 72 Benefits and (divers) drinks have they from them. 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 thee (O Muhammad). Lo! We know what they conceal and what proclaim. 76 Does not man see that We have created him from Nutfah (mixed male and female discharge semen drops). Yet behold! He (stands forth) as an open opponent. 77 producing arguments against Us, and forgetting his own creation. He asks, "Who can give life back to bones after they have rotted away?" 78 (Muhammad), tell him, "He who gave them life in the first place will bring them back to life again. He has the best knowledge of all creatures. 79 He Who has made for you the fire (to burn) from the green tree, so that with it 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 His affair, when He intendeth a thing, is only that He saith unto it: be, and it becometh. 82 So exalted is He in whose hand is the realm of all things, and to Him you will be returned. 83
