Likness of Essa
1
Is he who was dead and We have raised him unto life,
and set for him a light wherein he walketh among men,
as him whose similitude is in utter darkness whence
he cannot emerge? Thus is their conduct made
fair-seeming for the disbelievers
1
And had We willed We could have raised him by their
means, but he clung to the earth and followed
his own lust. Therefor his likeness is as the
likeness of a dog; if thou attackest him
he panteth with his tongue out, and if thou
leavest him he panteth with his tongue out
1
Such is the likeness of the, people who deny Our
revelations. Narrate unto them the history
(of the men of old), that haply they may take thought
1
Evil as an example are the folk who denied Our
revelations, and were wont to wrong themselves
