النحل — An-Nahl Ayat 76
وَضَرَبَ اللّٰهُ مَثَلًا رَّجُلَيْنِ اَحَدُهُمَآ اَبْكَمُ لَا يَقْدِرُ عَلٰى شَيْءٍ وَّهُوَ كَلٌّ عَلٰى مَوْلٰىهُ ۗ اَيْنَمَا يُوَجِّهْهُّ لَا يَأْتِ بِخَيْرٍ ۖهَلْ يَسْتَوِيْ هُوَۙ وَمَنْ يَّأْمُرُ بِالْعَدْلِ وَهُوَ عَلٰى صِرَاطٍ مُّسْتَقِيْمٍ ࣖ
Wa ḍaraballāhu maṡalar rajulaini aḥaduhumā abkamu lā yaqdiru ‘alā syai'iw wa huwa kallun ‘alā maulāh(u), ainamā yuwajjihhu lā ya'ti bikhair(in), hal yastawī huw(a), wa may ya'muru bil-‘adli wa huwa ‘alā ṣirāṭim mustaqīm(in).
"And Allah presents an example of two men, one of them dumb and unable to do a thing, while he is a burden to his guardian. Wherever he directs him, he brings no good. Is he equal to one who commands justice, while he is on a straight path?"

Reflection and Practical Meaning
This verse invites readers to slow down, remember Allah, and connect the message of the Quran with daily life. A useful way to approach An-Nahl ayah 76 is to ask three questions: what does this verse teach about Allah, what does it reveal about human character, and what small action can be practiced today? This method keeps reflection grounded and practical.
For personal study, read the verse slowly, repeat the key phrase, and write one sentence about how it applies to your prayer, family life, work, or choices. Consistent small reflections often become more beneficial than rushed reading. If you share this verse, include its surah and ayah reference so others can find the context.
