Sura Al-Nahl from 73 to 79


73. And they worship others besides Allâh - such as do not and cannot own any provision for them from the heavens or the earth.
74. So put not forward similitudes for Allâh ( as there is nothing similar to Him, nor He resembles anything ) . Truly! Allâh knows and you know not.
75. Allâh puts forward the example of ( two men - a believer and a disbeliever ) ; a slave ( disbeliever ) under the possession of another, he has no power of any sort, and ( the other ) , a man ( believer ) on whom We have bestowed a good provision from Us, and he spends thereof secretly and openly. Can they be equal? ( By no means ) . All the praises and thanks are to Allâh. Nay! ( But ) most of them know not.
76. And Allâh puts forward ( another ) example of two men, one of them dumb, who has no power over anything ( disbeliever ) , and he is a burden on his master; whichever way he directs him, he brings no good. Is such a man equal to one ( believer in the Islâmic Monotheism ) who commands justice, and is himself on the Straight Path?
77. And to Allâh belongs the Unseen of the heavens and the earth. And the matter of the Hour is not but as a twinkling of the eye, or even nearer. Truly! Allâh is Able to do all things.
78. And Allâh has brought you out from the wombs of your mothers while you know nothing. And He gave you hearing, sight, and hearts that you might give thanks ( to Allâh ) .
79. Do they not see the birds held ( flying ) in the midst of the sky? None holds them but Allâh [ none gave them the ability to fly but Allâh ] . Verily, in this are clear Ayât ( proofs and signs ) for people who believe ( in the Oneness of Allâh ) .
