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 To warn whoever is alive and justify the word against the disbelievers. 70 Are they, then, not aware that it is for them that We have created, among all the things which Our hands have wrought, the domestic animals of which they are [now] masters? 71 We have subjected these to them, so that some may be used for riding and some for food, 72 other uses also they have in them, and beverages. What, will they not be thankful? 73 But [nay,] they take to worshipping deities other than God, [hoping] to be succoured [by them, and not knowing that] 74 They have not the power to help them: but they will be brought up (before Our Judgment-seat) as a troop (to be condemned). 75 Let not their speech, then, grieve thee. Verily We know what they hide as well as what they disclose. 76 Does man not see that We created him of a sperm drop, and lo! he is flagrantly contentious? 77 And he propoundeth for us a similitude, and forgetteth his creation; he saith: who shall quicken the bones when they are decayed? 78 Say: 'He shall quicken them, who originated them the first time; He knows all creation, 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 earth, able to create the like of them? Yes indeed; He is the All-creator, the All-knowing. 81 When He wills a thing He has only to 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
