If We extend anyone's life, We reverse his development. Can they not use their reason? 68 We have not taught (Muhammad) to versify, nor is it worthy of him. This is nothing but a reminder and illuminating discourse, 69 To warn whosoever liveth, and that the word may be fulfilled against the disbelievers. 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 that We have subjected them to men's will, so that some of them they may use for riding and of some they may eat, 72 And for them in the animals are numerous different benefits and drinks; so will they not be grateful? 73 They set up deities apart from Allah, hoping that they will receive help from them. 74 They cannot help them, though they be hosts made ready for them. 75 So be not grieved by what they say. We certainly know what they hide and disclose. 76 Does not man see that We have created him from the small seed? Then lo! he is an open disputant. 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 Who giveth you out of the green tree fire, and lo! ye kindle therewith. 80 Is not He, who created the heavens and earth, able to create the like of them? Yes indeed; He is the All-creator, the All-knowing. 81 But His command, when He intendeth a thing, is only that He saith unto it: Be! and it is. 82 So Glorified is He and Exalted above all that they associate with Him, and in Whose Hands is the dominion of all things, and to Him you shall be returned. 83
