And whomsoever We cause to live long, We reduce (him) to an abject state in constitution; do they not then understand? 68 We did not teach him (to wit, the Messenger) poetry and it does not behove him. This is none but an Admonition, and a Clear Book 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 from what Our hands have made, grazing livestock, and [then] they are their owners? 71 And that We have subjected them to their (use)? of them some do carry them and some they eat: 72 and may have [yet other] benefits from them, and [milk] to drink? Will they not, then, be grateful? 73 But they have taken besides Allah [false] deities that perhaps they would be helped. 74 Those deities can render them no help. Yet these devotees act as though they were an army in waiting for them. 75 However, be not grieved by the sayings of those [who deny the truth]: verily, We know all that they keep secret as well as all that they bring into the open. 76 Does not man see that We have created him from the small seed? Then lo! he is an open disputant. 77 And [now] he [argues about Us, and] thinks of Us in terms of comparison, and is oblivious of how he himself was created! [And so] he says, "Who could give life to bones that have crumbled to dust?" 78 Say, "He will give them life who produced them the first time; and He is, of all creation, Knowing." 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 And His only task when He intends a thing is to command it, “Be” – and it thereupon happens! 82 Holy is He Who has full control over everything, and to Him you shall all be recalled. 83
