Whomsoever We grant a long life, We reverse him in his constitution. Do they still not understand? 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 that he may warn whosoever is living, and that the Word may be realized against the unbelievers. 70 Do they not see the cattle among things We have fashioned by Our power, which they own, 71 We have made the cattle subservient to them so they ride and consume them. 72 And they derive other advantages and drinks from them. Even then they do not offer thanks, 73 They have set up other gods besides God, hoping to be helped by them, 74 (But) they shall not be able to assist them, and they shall be a host brought up before them. 75 So let not their speech grieve thee (O Muhammad). Lo! We know what they conceal and what proclaim. 76 Beholdest not man that We have created him from a sperm? Yet lo! he is a manifest disputer? 77 And he has struck for Us a parable, and forgotten his own creation. He asks: 'Who will quicken the bones after they have decayed' 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 How can He who created the heavens and the earth not be able to create others like them? Why not? He is the real creator all-knowing. 81 His affair, when He intendeth a thing, is only that He saith unto it: be, and it becometh. 82 Holy is He Who has full control over everything, and to Him you shall all be recalled. 83
