39:29

ضَرَبَ اللّٰهُ مَثَلًا رَجُلًا فٖیهِ شُرَكَٓاءُ مُتَشَاكِسُونَ وَرَجُلًا سَلَمًا لِرَجُلٍؕ هَلْ یَسْتَوِیَانِ مَثَلًاؕ اَلْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِۚ بَلْ اَكْثَرُهُمْ لَا یَعْلَمُونَ

Daraba Allahu mathalan rajulan feehi shurakao mutashakisoona warajulan salaman lirajulin hal yastawiyani mathalan alhamdu lillahi bal aktharuhum la yaAAlamoona

Translations

Allah presents an example: a slave owned by quarreling partners and another belonging exclusively to one man - are they equal in comparison? Praise be to Allah! But most of them do not know

Saheeh International

Allah coineth a similitude: A man in relation to whom are several part-owners, quarrelling, and a man belonging wholly to one man. Are the two equal in similitude? Praise be to Allah! But most of them know not
