هُود : ٢٤

  • مَثَلُ (The) example
  • ٱلۡفَرِيقَيۡنِ (of) the two parties
  • كَٱلۡأَعۡمَىٰ (is) like the blind
  • وَٱلۡأَصَمِّ and the deaf
  • وَٱلۡبَصِيرِ and the seer
  • وَٱلسَّمِيعِۚ and the hearer
  • هَلۡ Are
  • يَسۡتَوِيَانِ they equal
  • مَثَلًاۚ (in) comparison
  • أَفَلَا Then will not
  • تَذَكَّرُونَ you take heed
The example of the two parties is like the blind and deaf, and the seeing and hearing. Are they equal in comparison? Then, will you not remember?
The likeness, the description, of the two parties, the disbelievers and the believers, is as the blind and the deaf, this being the likeness of the disbeliever, and the one who sees and the one who hears, this being the likeness of the believer, are they equal in likeness? No! Will you not then remember? (tadhakkaroon: the original taa' [of tatadhakkaroon] has been assimilated with the dhaal) [will you not then] be admonished?
