The physical growth of those whom We grant a long life will be reversed. Will you then 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 it may warn him who would have life, and (that) the word may prove true against the unbelievers. 70 Are they, then, not aware that it is for them that We have created, among all the things which Our hands have wrought, the domestic animals of which they are [now] masters? 71 We have subjected the cattle to them so that some of them they ride and eat the flesh of others. 72 And they have (other) profits from them (besides), and they get (milk) to drink. Will they not then be grateful? 73 And they have appointed Gods other than Allah, that perhaps they may be helped! 74 They have not the power to help them: but they will be brought up (before Our Judgment-seat) as a troop (to be condemned). 75 So let not their speech grieve you. Indeed, We know what they conceal and what they declare. 76 Does not man see that We created him from a drop. Yet there he is, flagrantly contentious, 77 And he invents an example for Us, while forgetting his own creation, saying, “Who is such that can revive the bones when they have completely rotted away?” 78 Say: He will revive them Who produced them at the first, for He is Knower of every creation, 79 Who hath appointed for you fire from the green tree, and behold! ye kindle from it. 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 And His only task when He intends a thing is to command it, “Be” – and it thereupon happens! 82 So exalted is He in whose hand is the realm of all things, and to Him you will be returned. 83
