Allah sets forth the Parable (of two men: one) a slave under the dominion of another; He has no power of any sort; and (the other) a man on whom We have bestowed goodly favours from Ourselves, and he spends thereof (freely), privately and publicly: are the two equal? (By no means;) praise be to Allah. But most of them understand not.
Allah sets forth (another) Parable of two men: one of them dumb, with no power of any sort; a wearisome burden is he to his master; whichever way be directs him, he brings no good: is such a man equal with one who commands Justice, and is on a Straight Way?
真主打一个比喻:一个奴隶,不能自由处理任何事务,一个自由人,我赏赐他忧厚的给养,而他秘密地和公开地加以施舍;他们俩人是一样的吗?一切赞颂,全归真主!但他们大半不知道。
真主又打一个比喻:两个男人,一个是哑巴,什么事也不能做,却是他主人的累赘,无论主人打发他到那里去,都不能带一点福利回来;另一个走的是正路,他劝人主持公道。他们俩人是一样的吗?
