And he whom We grant long life, We reverse him in creation (weakness after strength). Will they not then understand? 68 We have not instructed the (Prophet) in Poetry, nor is it meet for him: this is no less than a Message and a Qur'an making things clear: 69 So that he may warn him who is alive and feels, and justify the word against those who do not believe. 70 Have they not seen what We have created from the labor of Our own hands? We have given them cattle. 71 We have subjected the cattle to them so that some of them they ride and eat the flesh of others. 72 other uses also they have in them, and beverages. What, will they not be thankful? 73 And they have appointed Gods other than Allah, that perhaps they may be helped! 74 They are not able to help them, and they [themselves] are for them soldiers in attendance. 75 So do not let their saying grieve thee; assuredly We know what they keep secret and what they publish. 76 Does not man see that We created him from a drop. Yet there he is, flagrantly contentious, 77 And he hath coined for Us a similitude, and hath forgotten the fact of his creation, saying: Who will revive these bones when they have rotted away? 78 Say, "He who brought them into being in the first instance will give them life again: He has knowledge of every type of creation: 79 He has created fire for you out of the green tree from which you can kindle other fires. 80 Is not He who created the heavens and the earth Able to create the likes of them? Yes, [it is so]; and He is the Knowing Creator. 81 And His only task when He intends a thing is to command it, “Be” – and it thereupon happens! 82 So exalted is He in whose hand is the realm of all things, and to Him you will be returned. 83
