To whoever We give a long life We make him stoop. Do they not understand? 68 And We have not taught him poetry, nor it befitteth him. This is but an admonition and a Recital luminous: 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 Did they not see that We have created animals for them from Our handiwork, so they are their owners? 71 And We have tamed them for them, so some of them they ride, and some of them they eat. 72 From cattle they get milk and other benefits. Will they not then give thanks? 73 And they have taken beside Allah gods, hoping that haply they may be succoured. 74 They are not able to give them succour; whereas they shall be against them host brought forward. 75 Muhammad, let not their words annoy you. We certainly know whatever they conceal or reveal. 76 Does not man see We created him from a drop of semen? Even then he becomes an open contender, 77 And he propoundeth for us a similitude, and forgetteth his creation; he saith: who shall quicken the bones when they are decayed? 78 Say thou: He shall quicken them Who brought them forth for the first time, and He is of every kind of creation the Knower! 79 who has made fire for you from the green tree with which you kindle' 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 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
