If We extend anyone's life, We reverse his development. Can they not use their reason? 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 In order that it may warn him who is alive, and that the sentence may be justified on the infidels. 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 and that We have subjected them to men's will, so that some of them they may use for riding and of some they may eat, 72 And they have (other) benefits from them (besides), and they get (milk) to drink, will they not then be grateful? 73 And they have appointed Gods other than Allah, that perhaps they may be helped! 74 They will not be able to help them and will be brought (to Us) as their levied troops. 75 Therefore let not their speech grieve you; surely We know what they do in secret and what they do openly. 76 Beholdest not man that We have created him from a sperm? Yet lo! he is a manifest disputer? 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 quicken them who originated them the first time; He has knowledge of every 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 Verily, when He intends a thing, His Command is, "be", and it is! 82 So all glory to Him who holds all power over everything, to whom you will go back in the end. 83
