36:71 Do they not see that We have created for them livestock made by Our Hands, and then they are their owners?

36:72 And We have made them subservient to them; some they ride, and from others they eat,

36:73 and there are other benefits and drinks therein for them. Will they not then give thanks?

36:74 Yet they have taken other gods besides Allah, hoping that they may be helped.

36:75 They cannot help them, yet they serve them as their dedicated guards[1].

36:76 Do not let their words grieve you. Surely We know what they conceal and what they reveal.

36:77 Does man not see that We have created him from a sperm-drop, then[1] he becomes a clear adversary,

36:78 producing arguments[1] against Us while forgetting his own creation[2]. He says, “Who can give life to the bones after they have crumbled to dust?”

36:79 Say, “The One Who created them in the first place will give life to them, for He has full knowledge of every created being;

36:80 the One Who made for you fire out of the green tree, with which you kindle your fires[1].”

36:81 Is not the One Who created the heavens and earth able to create the like of these [people]? Yes indeed, for He is the Creator of all, the All-Knowing.

36:82 Whenever He wills something to be, He only says to it, “Be”, and it is.

36:83 So glory be to the One in Whose Hand is the dominion of everything, and to Him you will all be returned.
