If We extend anyone's life, We reverse his development. Can they not use their reason? 68 And We have not taught him (Muhammad) poetry, nor is it meet for him. This is naught else than a Reminder and a Lecture making plain, 69 that he may warn whosoever is living, and that the Word may be realized 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 And have subdued them unto them, so that some of them they have for riding, some for food? 72 they also have other uses in them and drinks. What, will they not give thanks! 73 And yet they have taken gods, other than Allah, so that they might be helped! 74 they are unable to succour their devotees, even though to them they may [appear to] be hosts drawn up [for succour]. 75 Muhammad, let not their words annoy you. We certainly know whatever they conceal or reveal. 76 Does not man see We created him from a drop of semen? Even then he becomes an open contender, 77 And he strikes out a likeness for Us and forgets his own creation. Says he: Who will give life to the bones when they are rotten? 78 Say: “He Who first brought them into being will quicken them; He knows well about every kind of creation; 79 He who produces for you fire out of the green tree, so that, lo! you kindle [your fires] therewith." 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 Whenever He wills a thing, He just commands it “Be” and it is. 82 Therefore Purity is to Him in Whose Hand* is the control over all things and it is towards Him that you will be returned. (Used as a metaphor to mean Power). 83
