And to whomsoever We give long life, We bend him over in His constitution; what, do they not understand? 68 We have not taught (Muhammad) to versify, nor is it worthy of him. This is nothing but a reminder and illuminating discourse, 69 In order that it may warn him who is alive, and that the sentence may be justified on the infidels. 70 Did they not see that We have created animals for them from Our handiwork, so 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 They derive a variety of benefits and drinks from them. Will they, then, not give thanks? 73 Yet they have taken, apart from God, gods; haply 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 Has not man regarded how that We created him of a sperm-drop? Then lo, he is a manifest adversary. 77 And he presents for Us an example and forgets his [own] creation. He says, "Who will give life to bones while they are disintegrated?" 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 He who created the heavens and the earth unable to create their like? Yes, indeed, He is the Creator, the Knower. 81 And His only task when He intends a thing is to command it, “Be” – and it thereupon happens! 82 So all glory to Him who holds all power over everything, to whom you will go back in the end. 83
