But [let them always remember that] if We lengthen a human being's days, We also cause him to decline in his powers [when he grows old]: will they not, then, use their reason? 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 whoever is alive and justify the word against the disbelievers. 70 Did they not see that We have created animals for them from Our handiwork, so they are their owners? 71 And We have subjected them to them, so some of them they have to ride upon, and some of them they eat. 72 And for them in the animals are numerous different benefits and drinks; so will they not be grateful? 73 And they have taken gods besides Allah that they may 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 Has the human not seen how We created him from a drop (of sperm)? Yet he is a clear opponent. 77 And [now] he [argues about Us, and] thinks of Us in terms of comparison, and is oblivious of how he himself was created! [And so] he says, "Who could give life to bones that have crumbled to dust?" 78 Say: (O Muhammad SAW) "He will give life to them Who created them for the first time! And He is the All-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 He who created the heavens and the earth unable to create their like? Yes, indeed, He is the Creator, the Knower. 81 And His only task when He intends a thing is to command it, “Be” – and it thereupon happens! 82 So Glorified is He and Exalted above all that they associate with Him, and in Whose Hands is the dominion of all things, and to Him you shall be returned. 83
