And whomever We bring to an old age, We reverse him in creation; so do they not understand? 68 We did not teach him (Muhammad) poetry, nor was he supposed to be a poet. It is only the word (of God) and the illustrious Quran 69 by which he may warn those who are living and may let the words of God come true against the unbelievers. 70 Have they not seen what We have created from the labor of Our own hands? We have given them cattle. 71 Whom We made subservient to them so that some of them they ride and some they eat? 72 Benefits and (divers) drinks have they from them. Will they not then give thanks? 73 Yet they take (for worship) gods other than Allah, (hoping) that they might be helped! 74 They will not be able to help them and will be brought (to Us) as their levied troops. 75 Let not their words grieve you. We have knowledge of all that they conceal and all that they reveal. 76 Hath not man seen that We have created him from a drop of seed? Yet lo! he is an open opponent. 77 He strikes for Us a similitude and forgot his own creation. He says: “Who will quicken the bones when they have decayed?” 78 Say: 'He will quicken them who originated them the first time; He has knowledge of every creation; 79 Who gave you fire from a green tree, with which you ignite the flame." 80 How can He who created the heavens and the earth not be able to create others like them? Why not? He is the real creator all-knowing. 81 Verily, His Command, when He intends a thing, is only that He says to it, "Be!" and it is! 82 So all glory to Him who holds all power over everything, to whom you will go back in the end. 83
