Ayah: 76

وَضَرَبَ ٱللَّهُ مَثَلٗا رَّجُلَيۡنِ أَحَدُهُمَآ أَبۡكَمُ لَا يَقۡدِرُ عَلَىٰ شَيۡءٖ وَهُوَ كَلٌّ عَلَىٰ مَوۡلَىٰهُ أَيۡنَمَا يُوَجِّههُّ لَا يَأۡتِ بِخَيۡرٍ هَلۡ يَسۡتَوِي هُوَ وَمَن يَأۡمُرُ بِٱلۡعَدۡلِ وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ صِرَٰطٖ مُّسۡتَقِيمٖ

(76) ^[3368]And Allah poses as example two men: ^[3369]one of them is ˹born˺ mute, able over nothing, and is a liability to his master^[3370]; wherever he directs him, he brings nothing of worth^[3371]. ^[3372]Is he equal to he who enjoins justice while being on a straight path!^[3373]

[3368] To further drive the point home, a more elaborated example of the heavily disadvantaged person and that who is greatly advantaged is given here. They could not argue against such a potent parable (cf. al-Biqāʿī, Naẓm al-Durar).
[3369] These are their idols who are mute, deaf, mindless and able over nothing (cf. al-Ṭabarī, al-Baghawī, Ibn Kathīr).
[3370] Kallun ʿalā (lit. a heavy impairment on) originates from being heavy (cf. al-Wāḥidī, Ibn ʿĀshūr). Mawlā is the person under whose care this person is (cf. Ibn ʿĀshūr, al-Tafsīr al-Muyassar, al-Tafsīr al-Mukhtaṣar). Such are idols who are a heavy burden on those who tend them (cf. al-Zamakhsharī, Ibn Kathīr).
[3371] That is being of no use at all!
[3372] The following is the example of God Almighty Himself (cf. al-Ṭabarī, al-Baghawī, Ibn Kathīr); to Him belongs the highest example.
[3373] Unlike the just described person of no worth or use at all, here is an altogether different one. The person described here is of a use that extends well beyond his own personal cycle to that of society at large, while at the same time being of a sterling character himself (cf. al-Ṭabarī, Ibn Kathīr, al-Shawkānī), i.e. a social reformer of the greatest character who practices what he preaches.
