وَمِنْهُم مَّن يَسْتَمِعُونَ إِلَيْكَ ۚ أَفَأَنتَ تُسْمِعُ ٱلصُّمَّ وَلَوْ كَانُوا۟ لَا يَعْقِلُونَ

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?

— Saheeh International

Some of them do listen to you: but can you make the deaf hear if they will not use their minds?

— M. A. S. Abdel Haleem

And among them are some who listen to you, but can you make the deaf to hear - even though they apprehend not?
