WaAllahu faddala baAAdakum AAala baAAdin fee alrrizqi fama allatheena fuddiloo biraddee rizqihim AAala ma malakat aymanuhum fahum feehi sawaon afabiniAAmati Allahi yajhadoona\n71. God has bestowed His gifts\n Of sustenance more freely on some\n Of you than on others: those\n More favoured are not going\n To throw back their gifts\n To those whom their right hands\n Possess, so as to be equal\n In that respect. Will they then\n Deny the favours of God?\n72. WaAllahu jaAAala lakum min anfusikum azwajan wajaAAala lakum min azwajikum baneena wahafadatan warazaqakum mina alttayyibati afabialbatili yu/minoona wabiniAAmati Allahi hum yakfuroona\n72. And God has made for you\n Mates (and Companions) of your own nature,\n And made for you, out of them,\n Sons and daughters and grandchildren,\n And provided for you sustenance\n Of the best: will they\n Then believe in vain things,\n And be ungrateful for God's favours?\u2014\n73. WayaAAbudoona min dooni Allahi ma la yamliku lahum rizqan mina alssamawati waal-ardi shay-an wala yastateeAAoona\n73. And worship others than God,\u2014\n Such as have no power\n Of providing them, for sustenance,\nWith anything in heavens or earth,\n And cannot possibly have\n Such power?\n74. Fala tadriboo lillahi al-amthala inna Allaha yaAAlamu waantum la taAAlamoona\n74. Invent not similitudes\n For God: for God knoweth,\n And ye know not.\n75. Daraba Allahu mathalan AAabdan mamlookan la yaqdiru AAala shay-in waman razaqnahu minna rizqan hasanan fahuwa yunfiqu minhu sirran wajahran hal yastawoona alhamdu lillahi bal aktharuhum la yaAAlamoona\n75. God sets forth the Parable\n (Of two men: one) a slave\n Under the dominion of another;\n He has no power of any sort;\n And (the other) a man\n On whom We have bestowed\n Goodly favours from Ourselves,\n And he spends thereof (freely),\n Privately and publicly:\n Are the two equal?\n (By no means;)\n Praise be to God. But\n Most of them understand not.\n76. Wadaraba Allahu mathalan rajulayni ahaduhuma abkamu la yaqdiru AAala shay-in wahuwa kallun AAala mawlahu aynama yuwajjihhu la ya/ti bikhayrin hal yastawee huwa waman ya/muru bialAAadli wahuwa AAala siratin mustaqeemin\n76. God sets forth (another) Parable\n Of two men: one of them\n Dumb, with no power\n Of any sort; a wearisome burden\n Is he to his master;\n Whichever way he directs him,\n He brings no good:\n Is such a man equal\n With one who commands\nJustice, and is on\n A Straight Way?","title":"The Quran: S\u016bra XVI.: Na\u1e25l or The Bee.: Section 10 (71-76)","type":"page"}
