The physical growth of those whom We grant a long life will be reversed. Will you then not understand? 68 We have not taught (Muhammad) to versify, nor is it worthy of him. This is nothing but a reminder and illuminating discourse, 69 To warn the living*, and to prove the Word against disbelievers. (Only the believers are deemed alive in Allah’s sight.) 70 Do they not see that We have created for them of what Our Hands have created, the cattle, so that they are their owners. 71 We have made the cattle subservient to them so they ride and consume them. 72 And therein they have advantages and drinks; will they not then be grateful? 73 And they have taken besides Allah aliha (gods), hoping that they might be helped (by those so called gods). 74 Those deities can render them no help. Yet these devotees act as though they were an army in waiting for them. 75 Muhammad, let not their words annoy you. We certainly know whatever they conceal or reveal. 76 Has the human not seen how We created him from a drop (of sperm)? Yet he is a clear opponent. 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: He will give life to them Who brought them into existence at first, and He is cognizant of all creation 79 “The One Who has created for you fire from the green tree, so you kindle from it.” 80 Has He Who created the heavens and the earth no power to create the likes of them? Yes, indeed, He is the Superb Creator. 81 Verily, when He intends a thing, His Command is, "be", and it is! 82 Wherefore hallowed be He in whose hand is the governance of everything, and unto whom ye shall be returned. 83
