wa-ḍaraba llāhu mathalan rajulayni ʾaḥaduhumā ʾabkamu yaqdiru ʿalā shayʾin wa-huwa kallun ʿalā mawlāhu ʾaynamā yuwajjihhu yaʾti bi-khayrin hal yastawī huwa wa-man yaʾmuru bi-l-ʿadli wa-huwa ʿalā ṣirāṭin mustaqīmin

Allah draws [another] parable: Two men, one of whom is dumb, having no power over anything and who is a liability to his master: wherever he directs him he does not bring any good. Is he equal to someone who enjoins justice and is [steady] on a straight path?
