وَلَقَدْ
صَرَّفْنَا
لِلنَّاسِ
فِي
هَذَا
الْقُرْآنِ
مِن
كُلِّ
مَثَلٍ
فَأَبَى
أَكْثَرُ
النَّاسِ
إِلَّا
كُفُورًا
wa-la-qad ṣarrafnā li-n-nāsi fī hādhā l-qurʾāni min kulli mathalin fa-ʾabā ʾaktharu n-nāsi ʾillā kufūran
We have certainly interspersed this Quran with every [kind of] parable for the people, but most people are only intent on ingratitude.
— Ali Quli Qarai
And We have explained to man, in this Qur'an, every kind of similitude: yet the greater part of men refuse (to receive it) except with ingratitude!
