This is but an admonition and a Recital luminous: 69 So that he may warn him who is alive and feels, and justify the word against those who do not believe. 70 Did they not see that We have created animals for them from Our handiwork, so 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 some for milk to drink and some from which other benefits may be received? Will they not be grateful? 73 But they have taken besides Allah [false] deities that perhaps they would be helped. 74 They are not able to give them succour; whereas they shall be against them host brought forward. 75 So be not grieved by what they say. We certainly know what they hide and disclose. 76 Does not man see We created him from a drop of semen? Even then he becomes an open contender, 77 And he hath coined for Us a similitude, and hath forgotten the fact of his creation, saying: Who will revive these bones when they have rotted away? 78 Say: He will give life to them Who brought them into existence at first, and He is cognizant of all creation 79 Who hath appointed for you fire from the green tree, and behold! ye kindle from it. 80 Is He who created the heavens and earth not able to create others like these people? Of course He is! He is indeed the Supreme Creator, the All Knowing: 81 His affair, when He intendeth a thing, is only that He saith unto it: be, and it becometh. 82 Therefore Purity is to Him in Whose Hand* is the control over all things and it is towards Him that you will be returned.
