Al-Jumuah
مَثَلُ ٱلَّذِينَ حُمِّلُواْ ٱلتَّوۡرَىٰةَ ثُمَّ لَمۡ يَحۡمِلُوهَا كَمَثَلِ ٱلۡحِمَارِ يَحۡمِلُ أَسۡفَارَۢاۚ بِئۡسَ مَثَلُ ٱلۡقَوۡمِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَذَّبُواْ بَِٔايَٰتِ ٱللَّهِۚ وَٱللَّهُ لَا يَهۡدِي ٱلۡقَوۡمَ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ
5The example of those who were instructed to follow (the commandments of) Taurat but they did not follow them, is like a donkey who is carrying many books (but is deprived of the benefits of these books. Hence, the essence of knowledge is to put it in practice). It is a very bad example for the people (Jews) who deny the revelations of Allah. And Allah does not guide people who are wrong-doers. (Also see Surah Al-Araf:179)
