                                  69  Then feed on every kind of of God, things that have no
                                  fruit, and follow the trodden control over their provision from
                                  paths of your Lord.’ From its the heavens or the earth in any
                                  belly comes a drink with different way, nor do they have any power
                                  colours which provides healing [to do so].  74  Do not compare
                                  for mankind. Indeed, in this there God with anyone. God has
                                  is a sign for people who give knowledge, but you have not.
                                  thought.                     75 God makes a comparison
                                    70 God created you; then He between an owned slave
                                  shall cause you to die: and some possessing no power over
                                  shall have their lives prolonged anything, and someone to whom
                                  to abject old age, ceasing to We have given plentiful
                                  know anything after once having provision, who gives out from it
                                  had knowledge. God is all privately and openly. Are they
                                  knowing and powerful.      equal? Praise be to God! But
                                    71
                                      God has given some of you most people do not know it.
                                  more provision than others.  76  God  makes  another
                                  Those who have been given more comparison between two men,
                                  are unwilling to pass their one of whom is dumb and cannot
                                  provision to the servants they do a thing, and is a burden on his
                                  possess so that they become their master. Wherever he sends him
                                  equals. Will they then deny the on an errand, he brings [him] no
                                  favour of God?             good. Is he equal to someone
                                    72 God has given you wives who commands justice and is on
                                  from among yourselves, and a straight path?
                                  given  you   children  and   77 God alone has knowledge
                                  grandchildren from your wives, of the hidden reality of the

                                  for you. Will they then believe in coming of the Hour [of
