And whomsoever We grant long life, We reverse him in creation. Reflect then they not? 68 We did not teach him (Muhammad) poetry, nor was he supposed to be a poet. It is only the word (of God) and the illustrious Quran 69 To warn whoever is alive and justify the word against the disbelievers. 70 Are they, then, not aware that it is for them that We have created, among all the things which Our hands have wrought, the domestic animals of which they are [now] masters? 71 And have subdued them unto them, so that some of them they have for riding, some for food? 72 And for them therein are [other] benefits and drinks, so will they not be grateful? 73 And they have taken (other) gods beside Allah, in order that they may be helped. 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 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 quicken them who originated them the first time; He has knowledge of every creation; 79 He who produces fire for you from green trees and from this you kindle fire." 80 Is not He Who created the heavens and the earth able to create the like of them? Yea! and He is the Creator (of all), the Knower. 81 When He wills a thing He has only to say: "Be," and it is. 82 Therefore Purity is to Him in Whose Hand* is the control over all things and it is towards Him that you will be returned.
