And whomsoever We cause to live long, We reduce (him) to an abject state in constitution; do they not then understand? 68 And We have not taught him poetry, nor is it meet for him; it is nothing but a reminder and a plain Quran, 69 To warn whosoever liveth, and that the word may be fulfilled against the disbelievers. 70 Have they not seen how We have created for them of Our handiwork the cattle, so that they are their owners, 71 We have subjected the cattle to them so that some of them they ride and eat the flesh of others. 72 other uses also they have in them, and beverages. What, will they not be thankful? 73 And yet they have taken gods, other than Allah, so that they might 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 However, be not grieved by the sayings of those [who deny the truth]: verily, We know all that they keep secret as well as all that they bring into the open. 76 Has not man regarded how that We created him of a sperm-drop? Then lo, he is a manifest adversary. 77 And [now] he [argues about Us, and] thinks of Us in terms of comparison, and is oblivious of how he himself was created! [And so] he says, "Who could give life to bones that have crumbled to dust?" 78 Say: 'He will quicken them who originated them the first time; He has knowledge of every creation; 79 [It is] He who made for you from the green tree, fire, and then from it you ignite. 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 His command, when He intends anything, is only to say to it: Be, so it is. 82 Wherefore hallowed be He in whose hand is the governance of everything, and unto whom ye shall be returned. 83
