The physical growth of those whom We grant a long life will be reversed. Will you then 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 that he may warn the living, and so that Judgement may be passed against the unbelievers. 70 Do they not see that We have created for them from what Our hands have made, grazing livestock, and [then] they are their owners? 71 We have made the cattle subservient to them so they ride and consume them. 72 and may have [yet other] benefits from them, and [milk] to drink? Will they not, then, be grateful? 73 And they have taken (other) gods beside Allah, in order that they may be helped. 74 but they are not able to help them: rather they will be brought before God as their allied host. 75 So do not let their saying grieve thee; assuredly We know what they keep secret and what they publish. 76 IS MAN, then, not aware that it is We who create him out of a [mere] drop of sperm - whereupon, lo! he shows himself endowed with the power to think and to argue? 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 revive them Who produced them at the first, for He is Knower 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 the earth able to create the like of these? Yea! He is the Supreme Creator, the Knower. 81 And His only task when He intends a thing is to command it, “Be” – and it thereupon happens! 82 So glory be to Him who has control over all things. It is to Him that you will all be brought back. 83
