To whoever We give a long life We make him stoop. Do they not understand? 68 We have not taught (Muhammad) to versify, nor is it worthy of him. This is nothing but a reminder and illuminating discourse, 69 To warn the living*, and to prove the Word against disbelievers. (Only the believers are deemed alive in Allah’s sight.) 70 Have they not seen how We have created for them the cattle they master with Our Hands? 71 We have subjected the cattle to them so that some of them they ride and eat the flesh of others. 72 and may have [yet other] benefits from them, and [milk] to drink? Will they not, then, be grateful? 73 But they have taken besides Allah [false] deities that perhaps they would be helped. 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 However, be not grieved by the sayings of those [who deny the truth]: verily, We know all that they keep secret as well as all that they bring into the open. 76 Does not man see that We created him from a drop. Yet there he is, flagrantly contentious, 77 And he puts forth for Us a parable, and forgets his own creation. He says: "Who will give life to these bones when they have rotted away and became dust?" 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 for you fire out of the green tree, when behold! You kindle therewith. 80 Is not He Who created the heavens and the earth able to create the like of them? Yea! and He is the Creator (of all), the Knower. 81 But His command, when He intendeth a thing, is only that He saith unto it: Be! and it is. 82 So exalted is He in whose hand is the realm of all things, and to Him you will be returned. 83
