If We extend anyone's life, We reverse his development. Can they not use their reason? 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 the living, and so that Judgement may be passed against the unbelievers. 70 Do they not see that We have created for them of what Our Hands have created, the cattle, so that they are their owners. 71 We have subdued them to them, and some of them they ride, 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 [nay,] they take to worshipping deities other than God, [hoping] to be succoured [by them, and not knowing that] 74 They will not be able to help them and will be brought (to Us) as their levied troops. 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 created him from a drop. Yet there he is, flagrantly contentious, 77 He strikes for Us a similitude and forgot his own creation.

Aye, that He is! for He is the All-Wise Creator, 81 Verily, His Command, when He intends a thing, is only that He says to it, "Be!" and it is! 82 Holy is He Who has full control over everything, and to Him you shall all be recalled. 83
