And he to whom We grant long life We reverse in creation; so will they not understand? 68 And We have not taught him poetry, nor is it meet for him; it is nothing but a reminder and a plain Quran, 69 That it may warn him who would have life, and (that) the word may prove true against the unbelievers. 70 Have they not seen how We have created for them of Our handiwork 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 And for them in the animals are numerous different benefits and drinks; so will they not be grateful? 73 Yet they have taken, apart from God, gods; haply they might be helped. 74 (But) they shall not be able to assist them, and they shall be a host brought up before them. 75 Let not their words grieve you. We have knowledge of all that they conceal and all that they reveal. 76 Has not man regarded how that We created him of a sperm-drop? Then lo, he is a manifest adversary. 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 thou: He shall quicken them Who brought them forth for the first time, and He is of every kind of creation the Knower! 79 who has made for you out of the green tree fire and lo, from it you kindle.' 80 Is not He who created the heavens and the earth able to create the like of these? Yea! He is the Supreme Creator, the Knower. 81 And His only task when He intends a thing is to command it, “Be” – and it thereupon happens! 82 Therefor Glory be to Him in Whose hand is the dominion over all things! Unto Him ye will be brought back. 83
