If We extend anyone's life, We reverse his development. Can they not use their reason? 68 We have not taught him poetry; it is not seemly for him. It is only a Remembrance and a Clear Koran, 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 subdued them unto them, so that some of them they have for riding and on some of them they feed? 72 They derive a variety of benefits and drinks from them. Will they, then, not give thanks? 73 But [nay,] they take to worshipping deities other than God, [hoping] to be succoured [by them, and not knowing that] 74 It is not in their power to help them; but they (the worshippers) are unto them a host in arms. 75 However, be not grieved by the sayings of those [who deny the truth]: verily, We know all that they keep secret as well as all that they bring into the open. 76 Does not man see that We have created him from Nutfah (mixed male and female discharge semen drops). Yet behold! He (stands forth) as an open opponent. 77 And he presents for Us an example and forgets his [own] creation. He says, "Who will give life to bones while they are disintegrated?" 78 Say: He will revive them Who produced them at the first, for He is Knower of every creation, 79 Who hath appointed for you fire from the green tree, and behold! ye 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 When He wills a thing, His command is to say to it 'Be', and it is! 82 So glory to Him in Whose hands is the dominion of all things: and to Him will ye be all brought back. 83
