And to whomsoever We give long life, We bend him over in His constitution; what, do they not understand? 68 And We have not taught him (Muhammad) poetry, nor is it meet for him. This is naught else than a Reminder and a Lecture making plain, 69 To warn whosoever liveth, and that the word may be fulfilled against the disbelievers. 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 We have made the cattle subservient to them so they ride and consume them. 72 They derive a variety of benefits and drinks from them. Will they, then, not give thanks? 73 And they have taken besides Allah aliha (gods), hoping that they might be helped (by those so called gods). 74 They are not able to help them, and they [themselves] are for them soldiers in attendance. 75 Therefore let not their speech grieve you; surely We know what they do in secret and what they do openly. 76 Doth not man see that it is We Who created him from sperm? yet behold! he (stands forth) as an open adversary! 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 who brought them into being in the first instance will give them life [once again,] seeing that He has full knowledge of every act of creation: 79 He, Who produces for you fire out of the green tree, when behold! You kindle therewith. 80 Is not He who created the heavens and the earth able to create the like of these? Yea! He is the Supreme Creator, the Knower. 81 Whenever He decides to create something He has only to say, "Exist," and it comes into existence. 82 Therefore glory be to Him in Whose hand is the kingdom of all things, and to Him you shall be brought back. 83
