If We grant long life to any, We cause him to be reversed in nature: Will they not then 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 That it may give admonition to any (who are) alive, and that the charge may be proved against those who reject (Truth). 70 Are they, then, not aware that it is for them that We have created, among all the things which Our hands have wrought, the domestic animals of which they are [now] masters? 71 And We have subdued them unto them, so that some of them they have for riding and on some of them they feed? 72 And they have (other) benefits from them (besides), and they get (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 (the appointed Gods) cannot help them; and they and their armies will come (to Us), as captives. 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 Doth not man see that it is We Who created him from sperm? yet behold! he (stands forth) as an open adversary! 77 And he hath coined for Us a similitude, and hath forgotten the fact of his creation, saying: Who will revive these bones when they have rotted away? 78 Say: 'He will quicken them who originated them the first time; He has knowledge of every creation; 79 who has made for you out of the green tree fire and lo, from it you kindle.' 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 His affair, when He intendeth a thing, is only that He saith unto it: be, and it becometh. 82 So all glory to Him who holds all power over everything, to whom you will go back in the end. 83
