And he whom We grant long life, We reverse him in creation (weakness after strength). Will they not then understand? 68 We did not teach him (to wit, the Messenger) poetry and it does not behove him. This is none but an Admonition, and a Clear Book 69 To warn whoever is alive and justify the word against the disbelievers. 70 Do they not see that We have created for them of what Our Hands have created, the cattle, so that they are their owners. 71 And have subjected the animals for them, so they ride some animals and eat some? 72 From cattle they get milk and other benefits. Will they not then give thanks? 73 They have set up other gods besides God, hoping to be helped by them, 74 They are not able to give them succour; whereas they shall be against them host brought forward. 75 Therefore let not their speech grieve you; surely We know what they do in secret and what they do openly. 76 And did not man see that We have created him from a drop of semen? Yet he is an open quarreller! 77 And he propoundeth for us a similitude, and forgetteth his creation; he saith: who shall quicken the bones when they are decayed? 78 Say: "He who brought them into being in the first instance will give them life [once again,] seeing that He has full knowledge of every act of creation: 79 He Who created from a green tree a fire for you, a fire to light your stoves with.” 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 His Being alone is such that when He wills a thing to be, He but says unto it, "Be" — and it is. 82 Therefor Glory be to Him in Whose hand is the dominion over all things! Unto Him ye will be brought back. 83
