And whomever We bring to an old age, We reverse him in creation; so 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 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 Observe they not that We have created for them, of that which Our hands have worked, cattle: so that they are their owners. 71 We have subdued them to them, and some of them they ride, 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 And they have taken beside Allah gods, hoping that haply they may be succoured. 74 They (the appointed Gods) cannot help them; and they and their armies will come (to Us), as captives. 75 So let not their speech grieve thee (O Muhammad). Lo! We know what they conceal and what proclaim. 76 And did not man see that We have created him from a drop of semen? Yet he is an open quarreller! 77 He strikes for Us a similitude and forgot his own creation. He says: “Who will quicken the bones when they have decayed?” 78 Say, "He who brought them into being in the first instance will give them life again: He has knowledge of every type of creation: 79 Who gave you fire from a green tree, with which you ignite the flame." 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 Whenever He wills a thing, He just commands it “Be” and it is. 82 Holy is He Who has full control over everything, and to Him you shall all be recalled. 83
