And to whomsoever We give long life, We bend him over in His constitution; what, do they not understand? 68 AND [thus it is:] We have not imparted to this [Prophet the gift of] poetry, nor would [poetry] have suited this [message]: it is but a reminder and a [divine] discourse, clear in itself and clearly showing the truth, 69 that he may warn him who is alive and establish an argument against those that deny the Truth. 70 Do they not see that, among the things which Our hands have fashioned, We have created for them cattle of which they are the masters, 71 And We have tamed them for them, so some of them they ride, and some of them they eat. 72 They derive a variety of benefits and drinks from them. Will they, then, not give thanks? 73 And yet they have taken gods, other than Allah, so that they might be helped! 74 but they are not able to help them: rather they will be brought before God as their allied host. 75 So do not let their saying grieve thee; assuredly We know what they keep secret and what they publish. 76 IS MAN, then, not aware that it is We who create him out of a [mere] drop of sperm - whereupon, lo! he shows himself endowed with the power to think and to argue? 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 give them life Who created them for the first time! for He is Well-versed in every kind of creation!- 79 He Who created from a green tree a fire for you, a fire to light your stoves with.” 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 wills a thing, His command is to say to it '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
