And whomever We bring to an old age, We reverse him in creation; so do they not understand? 68 AND [thus it is:] We have not imparted to this [Prophet the gift of] poetry, nor would [poetry] have suited this [message]: it is but a reminder and a [divine] discourse, clear in itself and clearly showing the truth, 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 Do they not see that We have created for them of what Our Hands have created, the cattle, so that they are their owners. 71 And have subdued them unto them, so that some of them they have for riding, some for food? 72 They derive a variety of benefits and drinks from them. Will they, then, not give thanks? 73 Yet they take (for worship) gods other than Allah, (hoping) that they might be helped! 74 they are unable to succour their devotees, even though to them they may [appear to] be hosts drawn up [for succour]. 75 Let not their words grieve you. We have knowledge of all that they conceal and all that they reveal. 76 Does not man see We created him from a drop of semen? Even then he becomes an open contender, 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 first brought them into being will quicken them; He knows well about every kind of creation; 79 “The One Who has created for you fire from the green tree, so you kindle from it.” 80 And is it not possible for the One Who created the heavens and the earth to create the likes of them? It is surely possible, why not? And He is the Great Creator, the All Knowing of everything. 81 Verily, when He intends a thing, His Command is, "be", and it is! 82 Limitless, then, in His glory is He in whose hand rests the mighty dominion over all things; and unto Him you all will be brought back! 83
