To whoever We give a long life We make him stoop. Do they not understand? 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 to the end that it may warn everyone who is alive [of heart,] and that the word [of God] may bear witness against all who deny the truth. 70 Do they not see Our handiwork: We created for them cattle which they own? 71 We have subjected these to them, so that some may be used for riding and some for food, 72 And they have therefrom other benefits and drinks. Will they not then give thanks? 73 They set up deities apart from Allah, hoping that they will receive help from them. 74 It is not in their power to help them; but they (the worshippers) are unto them a host in arms. 75 So let not their speech, then, grieve you (O Muhammad SAW). Verily, We know what they conceal and what they reveal. 76 Has not man regarded how that We created him of a sperm-drop? Then lo, he is a manifest adversary. 77 And he propoundeth for us a similitude, and forgetteth his creation; he saith: who shall quicken the bones when they are decayed? 78 Say: He will give life to them Who brought them into existence at first, and He is cognizant of all creation 79 He Who has made for you the fire (to burn) from the green tree, so that with it you kindle (fire). 80 Is He who created the heavens and earth not able to create others like these people? Of course He is! He is indeed the Supreme Creator, the All Knowing: 81 His Being alone is such that when He wills a thing to be, He but says unto 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
