Looking for a verse
-
Salam everyone
I was debating my mother today about the Hadiths and I was trying to tell her a verse which says something along the lines "I have given you the eyes, the ears and the brain so that you may use them," but couldn't remember in which sura in the koran it is from. Does anyone here know? Thanks

Salam
hmm there's lots of verses with parables to use our reason not sure if there is one exactly as you want but check these out
2171 (Asad) And so, the parable of those who are bent on denying the truth is that of the beast which hears the shepherd's cry, and hears in it nothing but the sound of a voice and a call. Deaf are they, and dumb, and blind for they do not use their reason.
822 (Asad) Verily, the vilest of all creatures in the sight of God are those deaf, those dumb ones who do not use their reason.
1319 (Asad) CAN, THEN, he who knows that whatever has been bestowed from on high upon thee by thy Sustainer is the truth be deemed equal to one who is blind? Only they who are endowed with insight keep this in mind
or maybe
2246 (Asad) Have they, then, never journeyed about the earth, letting their hearts gain wisdom, and causing their ears to hear? Yet, verily, it is not their eyes that have become blind - but blind have become the hearts that are in their breasts!
hope those help
peace

You may have been thinking of 1736
And do not follow what you have no knowledge of; surely the hearing, the sight and the heart, all of these, shall be questioned about that.In any case, see the many references here

Salaam,
Not sure if it's what you're looking for
And certainly We have created for hell many of the jinn and the men; they have hearts with which they do not understand, and they have eyes with which they do not see, and they have ears with which they do not hear; they are as cattle, nay, they are in worse errors; these are the heedless ones.
