If We grant long life to any, We cause him to be reversed in nature: Will they not then understand? 68 We did not teach him (to wit, the Messenger) poetry and it does not behove him. This is none but an Admonition, and a Clear Book 69 by which he may warn those who are living and may let the words of God come true against the unbelievers. 70 Do they not see Our handiwork: We created for them cattle which they own? 71 And We have subjected them to them, so some of them they have to ride upon, and some of them they eat. 72 And therein they have advantages and drinks; will they not then be grateful? 73 And they have appointed Gods other than Allah, that perhaps they may be helped! 74 Those deities can render them no help. Yet these devotees act as though they were an army in waiting for them. 75 So let not their speech, then, grieve you (O Muhammad SAW). Verily, We know what they conceal and what they reveal. 76 Does not man see We created him from a drop of semen? Even then he becomes an open contender, 77 He strikes for Us a similitude and forgot his own creation. He says: “Who will quicken the bones when they have decayed?” 78 Say, "He will give them life Who created them for the first time! for He is Well-versed in every kind of creation!- 79 He who produces fire for you from green trees and from this you kindle fire." 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 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
