To whoever We give a long life We make him stoop. Do they not 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 that he may warn whosoever is living, and that the Word may be realized against the unbelievers. 70 Have they not seen how We have created for them the cattle they master with Our Hands? 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 They derive a variety of benefits and drinks from them. Will they, then, not give thanks? 73 And they have taken besides Allah aliha (gods), hoping that they might be helped (by those so called gods). 74 Those deities can render them no help. Yet these devotees act as though they were an army in waiting for them. 75 So do not let their saying grieve thee; assuredly We know what they keep secret and what they publish. 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 who created you the first time. He has knowledge of every creation, 79 He Who has made for you the fire (to burn) from the green tree, so that with it you kindle (fire). 80 Has He Who created the heavens and the earth no power to create the likes of them? Yes, indeed, He is the Superb Creator. 81 When He wills a thing, His command is to say to it 'Be', and it is! 82 Therefore Purity is to Him in Whose Hand* is the control over all things and it is towards Him that you will be returned. (Used as a metaphor to mean Power). 83
