And whomever We bring to an old age, We reverse him in creation; so 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 the living, and so that Judgement may be passed 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 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 may have [yet other] benefits from them, and [milk] to drink? Will they not, then, be grateful? 73 And they have taken (other) gods beside Allah, in order that they may be helped. 74 They (the appointed Gods) cannot help them; and they and their armies will come (to Us), as captives. 75 Let not their words grieve you. We have knowledge of all that they conceal and all that they reveal. 76 Has not man regarded how that We created him of a sperm-drop? Then lo, he is a manifest adversary. 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 will give them life Who created them for the first time! for He is Well-versed in every kind of creation!- 79 Who giveth you out of the green tree fire, and lo! ye kindle therewith. 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 His command, when He intends anything, is only to say to it: Be, so it is. 82 Limitless, then, in His glory is He in whose hand rests the mighty dominion over all things; and unto Him you all will be brought back! 83
