Ar-Rum 28

ضَرَبَ لَكُمْ مَثَلًا مِنْ اَنْفُسِكُمْۜ هَلْ لَكُمْ مِنْ مَا مَلَكَتْ اَيْمَانُكُمْ مِنْ شُرَكَٓاءَ ف۪ي مَا رَزَقْنَاكُمْ فَاَنْتُمْ ف۪يهِ سَوَٓاءٌ تَخَافُونَهُمْ كَخ۪يفَتِكُمْ اَنْفُسَكُمْۜ كَذٰلِكَ نُفَصِّلُ الْاٰيَاتِ لِقَوْمٍ يَعْقِلُونَ ۝٢٨

28Allah gives you an example from your own lives. Would you consent to those under your command becoming partners in the wealth We have given you, sharing that wealth with them equally and standing on an equal footing with you? Would you feel for them the same concern you feel for yourselves? This is how We explain the verses for a people who use their reason.
