He whom we bring unto old age, We reverse him in creation (making him go back to weakness after strength). Have ye then no sense? 68 And We have not taught him poetry, nor is it meet for him; it is nothing but a reminder and a plain Quran, 69 to warn all who are truly alive, and to justify the word [God's verdict] against the deniers. 70 Do they not see that We have created for them from what Our hands have made, grazing livestock, and [then] they are their owners? 71 and that We have subjected them to men's will, so that some of them they may use for riding and of some they may eat, 72 And therein they have advantages and drinks; will they not then be grateful? 73 They chose idols besides God in the hope of receiving help from them, but they will not be able to help them. 74 They have not the power to help them: but they will be brought up (before Our Judgment-seat) as a troop (to be condemned). 75 Therefore let not their speech grieve you; surely We know what they do in secret and what they do openly. 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 [now] he [argues about Us, and] thinks of Us in terms of comparison, and is oblivious of how he himself was created! [And so] he says, "Who could give life to bones that have crumbled to dust?" 78 Say: "He who created you 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 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 His command, when He desires a thing, is to say to it 'Be,' and it is. 82 So glory be to Him who has control over all things. It is to Him that you will all be brought back. 83
