Maarif-ul-Quran (En) - Ar-Ra'd : 17
اَنْزَلَ مِنَ السَّمَآءِ مَآءً فَسَالَتْ اَوْدِیَةٌۢ بِقَدَرِهَا فَاحْتَمَلَ السَّیْلُ زَبَدًا رَّابِیًا١ؕ وَ مِمَّا یُوْقِدُوْنَ عَلَیْهِ فِی النَّارِ ابْتِغَآءَ حِلْیَةٍ اَوْ مَتَاعٍ زَبَدٌ مِّثْلُهٗ١ؕ كَذٰلِكَ یَضْرِبُ اللّٰهُ الْحَقَّ وَ الْبَاطِلَ١ؕ۬ فَاَمَّا الزَّبَدُ فَیَذْهَبُ جُفَآءً١ۚ وَ اَمَّا مَا یَنْفَعُ النَّاسَ فَیَمْكُثُ فِی الْاَرْضِ١ؕ كَذٰلِكَ یَضْرِبُ اللّٰهُ الْاَمْثَالَؕ
He sent down water from the heavens, so the wadis flowed according to their measure, and the flood carried bulging foam. And a similar foam comes up from what they melt in fire to obtain ornaments or other objects. This is how Allah depicts the truth and the untruth. As for the foam, it gets to be thrown away, while that which benefits people remains on the earth. This is how Allah brings out the parables.
