We have knowledge of all that they conceal and all that they reveal. 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 And he has struck for Us a similitude and forgotten his creation; he says, 'Who shall quicken the bones when they are decayed?' 78 Say: 'He shall quicken them, who originated them the first time; He knows all creation, 79 who has made fire for you from the green tree with which you kindle' 80 Is He who created the heavens and earth not able to create others like these people?

To Him you will all return. 83
