Sahih International:

And among them are those who listen to you. But can you cause the deaf to hear [i.e., benefit from this hearing], although they will not use reason? (Yunus [10] : 42)

And among them there are those who listen to you. Would you, then, make the deaf hear, even though they lack understanding?
