«مِينْ يِقْرَا؟ وِمِينْ يِسْمَعْ؟»

The paired questions are rhetorical, using the everyday spoken sense of reading and hearing rather than a formal literary voice. The speaker is not asking for anyone's identity but declaring that nobody is paying attention. Whatever is written or said will go unread and unheard, so the effort to communicate feels wasted from the start.

The saying expresses frustration at addressing people who will not respond. It fits moments when advice, complaints, or appeals meet indifference, and it suggests the speaker has given up expecting any reaction from those being called upon.

Use it as a weary aside when warnings, letters, or pleas go unheeded, such as after repeatedly advising someone who ignores every word. It suits informal speech and carries a sigh of resignation rather than open anger.
