If We extend anyone's life, We reverse his development. Can they not 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 to warn all who are truly alive, and to justify the word [God's verdict] against the deniers. 70 See they not that it is We Who have created for them - among the things which Our hands have fashioned - cattle, which are under their dominion?- 71 We have subjected these to them, so that some may be used for riding and some for food, 72 And therein they have advantages and drinks; will they not then be grateful? 73 And they have taken gods besides Allah that they may be helped. 74 They will not be able to help them and will be brought (to Us) as their levied troops. 75 Muhammad, let not their words annoy you. We certainly know whatever they conceal or reveal. 76 Has the human not seen how We created him from a drop (of sperm)? Yet he is a clear opponent. 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 thou: He shall quicken them Who brought them forth for the first time, and He is of every kind of creation the Knower! 79 [It is] He who made for you from the green tree, fire, and then from it you ignite. 80 "Is not He Who created the heavens and the earth able to create the like thereof?" - Yea, indeed! for He is the Creator Supreme, of skill and knowledge (infinite)! 81 when He decrees a thing, He need only say, "Be!" and it is. 82 All glory belongs to the One in whose hands is the control of all things. To Him you will all return. 83
