English - Chapter 62 - Al-Jumuah
Translation by Muhammad Asad — Permalink
Verse 5 — Surah Al-Jumuah 62:5
THE PARABLE of those who were graced with the burden of the Torah, and thereafter failed to bear this burden, is that of an ass that carries a load of books [but cannot benefit from them]. Calamitous is the parable of people who are bent on giving the lie to God's messages - for God does not bestow His guidance upon such evildoing folk
