أَمْ تَحْسَبُ أَنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ يَسْمَعُونَ أَوْ يَعْقِلُونَ ۚ إِنْ هُمْ إِلَّا كَٱلْأَنْعَـٰمِ ۖ بَلْ هُمْ أَضَلُّ سَبِيلًا
Am ta h sabu anna aktharahum yasmaAAoona aw yaAAqiloona in hum ill a ka a lanAA a mi bal hum a d allu sabeel a n
Or cost thou think that most of them listen [to thy message] and use their reason? Nay, they are but like cattle - nay, they are even less conscious of the right way!37
  - Mohammad Asad

Lit., "they are farther astray from the path [of truth]": see note [144] on 7:179 .

Or do you think that most of them listen or try to understand? They are nothing but animals - nay, they are even further off track!
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Or do you think that most of them listen or understand?1 They are only like cattle- no, more than that, they are astray from the 'Right' Way!2
  - Mustafa Khattab

 They neither pay attention, nor think for themselves. They only follow others blindly.

 Generally, animals are obedient and loyal to their masters who care for them and they seem to know their way, whereas Meccan pagans are disobedient and ungrateful to their Lord and Sustainer, choosing to stray from the right path.

Or deemest thou that most of them hear or understand? They are but as the cattle, nay, but they are farther astray!
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
Or thinkest thou that most of them listen or understand? They are only like cattle; nay they are worse astray in Path.
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali
