And to whomsoever We give long life, We bend him over in His constitution; what, do they not understand? 68 And We have not taught him poetry, nor it befitteth him. This is but an admonition and a Recital luminous: 69 that he may warn him who is alive and establish an argument against those that deny the Truth. 70 Did they not see that We have created animals for them from Our handiwork, so they are their owners? 71 and that We have subjected them to men's will, so that some of them they may use for riding and of some they may eat, 72 And they have therefrom other benefits and drinks. Will they not then give thanks? 73 They chose idols besides God in the hope of receiving help from them, but they will not be able to help them. 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 Does man not consider that We created him from a [mere] sperm-drop - then at once he is a clear adversary? 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 [It is] He who made for you from the green tree, fire, and then from it you ignite. 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 when He decrees a thing, He need only say, "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
