And he whom We grant long life, We reverse him in creation (weakness after strength). Will they not then understand? 68 We did not teach him (Muhammad) poetry, nor was he supposed to be a poet. It is only the word (of God) and the illustrious Quran 69 by which he may warn those who are living and may let the words of God come true against the unbelievers. 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 their (use)? of them some do carry them and some they eat: 72 Benefits and (divers) drinks have they from them. Will they not then give thanks? 73 And they have taken gods besides Allah that they may be helped. 74 They (the appointed Gods) cannot help them; and they and their armies will come (to Us), as captives. 75 So be not grieved by what they say. We certainly know what they hide and disclose. 76 Does not man see that We have created him from the small seed? Then lo! he is an open disputant. 77 And he has struck for Us a similitude and forgotten his creation; he says, 'Who shall quicken the bones when they are decayed?' 78 Say: He will give life to them Who brought them into existence at first, and He is cognizant of 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 Has He Who created the heavens and the earth no power to create the likes of them? Yes, indeed, He is the Superb Creator. 81 when He decrees a thing, He need only say, "Be!" and it is. 82 Therefore glory be to Him in Whose hand is the kingdom of all things, and to Him you shall be brought back. 83
