Sura 29 Al-'Ankabut (The Spider), ayah 41

  1. مَثَلُ الَّذِينَ اتَّخَذُوا مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ أَوْلِيَاءَ كَمَثَلِ الْعَنْكَبُوتِ اتَّخَذَتْ بَيْتًا ۖ وَإِنَّ أَوْهَنَ الْبُيُوتِ لَبَيْتُ الْعَنْكَبُوتِ ۖ لَوْ كَانُوا يَعْلَمُونَ

    Translation by words

    مَثَلُ
    (The) example
    ٱلَّذِينَ
    (of) those who
    ٱتَّخَذُوا۟
    take
    مِن
    besides
    دُونِ
    besides
    ٱللَّهِ
    Allah
    أَوْلِيَآءَ
    protectors
    كَمَثَلِ
    (is) like
    ٱلْعَنكَبُوتِ
    the spider
    ٱتَّخَذَتْ
    who takes
    بَيْتًا
    a house.
    وَإِنَّ
    And indeed,
    أَوْهَنَ
    the weakest
    ٱلْبُيُوتِ
    (of) houses
    لَبَيْتُ
    (is) surely (the) house
    ٱلْعَنكَبُوتِ
    (of) the spider,
    لَوْ
    if (only)
    كَانُوا۟
    they
    يَعْلَمُونَ
    know.

    The example of those who take allies other than Allah is like that of the spider who takes a home. And indeed, the weakest of homes is the home of the spider, if they only knew.
