We have given them cattle. 71 We have subdued them to them, and some of them they ride, and some they eat; 72 Benefits and (divers) drinks have they from them. Will they not then give thanks? 73 And they have taken gods besides Allah that they may be helped. 74 They cannot help them, though they be hosts made ready for them. 75 So do not let their sayings grieve you. Surely, We have knowledge of what they hide and all that they reveal. 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 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 revive them Who produced them at the first, for He is Knower of every creation, 79 He has created fire for you out of the green tree from which you can kindle other fires. 80 And is it not possible for the One Who created the heavens and the earth to create the likes of them?
