Whomsoever We grant a long life, We reverse him in his constitution. Do they still not understand? 68 And We have not taught him poetry, nor it befitteth him. This is but an admonition and a Recital luminous: 69 to warn all who are truly alive, and to justify the word [God's verdict] against the deniers. 70 Do they not see that, among the things which Our hands have fashioned, We have created for them cattle of which they are the masters, 71 We have subdued these to them, and some of them they ride and some of them they eat; 72 From cattle they get milk and other benefits. Will they not then give thanks? 73 Yet they take (for worship) gods other than Allah, (hoping) that they might be helped! 74 They cannot help them, though they be hosts made ready for them. 75 Let not their words grieve you. We have knowledge of all that they conceal and all that they reveal. 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 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 "The same Who produces for you fire out of the green tree, when behold! ye kindle therewith (your own fires)! 80 How can He who created the heavens and the earth not be able to create others like them? Why not? He is the real creator all-knowing. 81 Whenever He decides to create something He has only to say, "Exist," and it comes into existence. 82 So Glorified is He and Exalted above all that they associate with Him, and in Whose Hands is the dominion of all things, and to Him you shall be returned. 83
