But [let them always remember that] if We lengthen a human being's days, We also cause him to decline in his powers [when he grows old]: will they not, then, use their reason? 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 him who is alive and establish an argument against those that deny the Truth. 70 Do they not see that We have created for them from what Our hands have made, grazing livestock, and [then] they are their owners? 71 We have made the cattle subservient to them so they ride and consume them. 72 And for them therein are [other] benefits and drinks, so will they not be grateful? 73 Yet they take (for worship) gods other than Allah, (hoping) that they might be helped! 74 Instead, the disbelievers will be brought into the presence of God as the soldiers of the idols. 75 Therefore (O dear Prophet Mohammed – peace and blessings be upon him) do not grieve because of what they (the disbelievers) say; indeed We know what they conceal and what they disclose. 76 IS MAN, then, not aware that it is We who create him out of a [mere] drop of sperm - whereupon, lo! he shows himself endowed with the power to think and to argue? 77 And he has struck for Us a parable, and forgotten his own creation. He asks: 'Who will quicken the bones after they have decayed' 78 Say: He will give life to them Who brought them into existence at first, and He is cognizant of all creation 79 “The One Who has created for you fire from the green tree, so you kindle from it.” 80 Is He who created the heavens and earth not able to create others like these people? Of course He is! He is indeed the Supreme Creator, the All Knowing: 81 when He decrees a thing, He need only say, "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
