The Bee - Chapter 16, Verses 75-76, Holy Koran

Allah has here set forth an allegory, just consider A slave the property of another Therefore he has no power On the contrary One who is granted a handsome sustenance so he Spends from it secretly and openly - Are the two similar? Praise is due to Allah But most of the people are not aware. And Allah has set forth anther allegory, now consider Two persons, one of them is dumb Unable to do anything on his own Thus he is a burden to his master Wherever he is sent he brings no good outcome Can he be held equal with him, who Has enjoined what is just And is also on the straight avenue.
