Whomsoever We grant a long life, We reverse him in his constitution. Do they still not understand? 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 to the end that it may warn everyone who is alive [of heart,] and that the word [of God] may bear witness against all who deny the truth. 70 Have they not seen how We have created for them of Our handiwork the cattle, so that they are their owners, 71 And We have tamed them for them, so some of them they ride, and some of them they eat. 72 and may have [yet other] benefits from them, and [milk] to drink? Will they not, then, be grateful? 73 They chose idols besides God in the hope of receiving help from them, but they will not be able to help them. 74 but they are not able to help them: rather they will be brought before God as their allied host. 75 So be not grieved by what they say. We certainly know what they hide and disclose. 76 Beholdest not man that We have created him from a sperm? Yet lo! he is a manifest disputer? 77 And he makes comparisons for Us, and forgets his own (origin and) Creation: He says, "Who can give life to (dry) bones and decomposed ones (at that)?" 78 Say thou: He shall quicken them Who brought them forth for the first time, and He is of every kind of creation the Knower! 79 Who hath appointed for you fire from the green tree, and behold! ye kindle from it. 80 Is the One who has created the heavens and the earth not able to create another creature like the human being? He certainly has the power to do so. He is the Supreme Creator and is All-knowing. 81 And His only task when He intends a thing is to command it, “Be” – and it thereupon happens! 82 Wherefore hallowed be He in whose hand is the governance of everything, and unto whom ye shall be returned. 83
