o mankind! a parable has been made so listen to it verily those on whom you call besides allah cannot create a fly even though they combine together for the purpose. and if the fly snatches away a thing from them they will have no power to release it from the fly. so weak are the seeker and the sought.
يا أيها الناس ضرب مثل فاستمعوا له إن الذين تدعون من دون الله لن يخلقوا ذبابا ولو اجتمعوا له وإن يسلبهم الذباب شيئا لا يستنقذوه منه ضعف الطالب والمطلوب
