If We grant long life to any, We cause him to be reversed in nature: 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 To warn whoever is alive and justify the word against the disbelievers. 70 Have they not seen how We have created for them of Our handiwork the cattle, so that they are their owners, 71 And We have subjected them to them, so some of them they have to ride upon, and some of them they eat. 72 other uses also they have in them, and beverages. What, will they not be thankful? 73 But they have taken besides Allah [false] deities that perhaps they would 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 Let not their words grieve you. We have knowledge of all that they conceal and all that they reveal. 76 Does man not see that We created him of a sperm drop, and lo! he is flagrantly contentious? 77 producing arguments against Us, and forgetting his own creation. He asks, "Who can give life back to bones after 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 Who giveth you out of the green tree fire, and lo! ye kindle therewith. 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 Being alone is such that when He wills a thing to be, He but says unto it, "Be" — and it is. 82 Therefore glory be to Him in Whose hand is the kingdom of all things, and to Him you shall be brought back. 83
