Surah Al-Baqarah (2:259) Quran.com
وَانْظُرْ إِلَىٰ حِمَارِكَ وَلِنَجْعَلَكَ آيَةً لِلنَّاسِ Or [consider such an example] as the one who passed by a township which had fallen into ruin. He said, "How will Allah bring this to life after its death?" So Allah caused him to die for a hundred years; then He revived him. He said, "How long have you remained?" The man said, "I have remained a day or part of a day." He said, "Rather, you have remained one hundred years. Look at your food and your drink; it has not changed with time. And look at your donkey; and We will make you a sign for the people. And look at the bones [of this donkey] - how We raise them and then We cover them with flesh." And when it became clear to him, he said, "I know that Allah is over all things competent." (Sahih International)
Surah Al-Muddathir (74:50) Quran.com
كَأَنَّهُمْ حُمُرٌ مُسْتَنْفِرَةٌ As if they were alarmed donkeys (Sahih International)
Surah Luqman (31:19) Quran.com
وَاغْضُضْ مِنْ صَوْتِكَ إِنَّ أَنْكَرَ الْأَصْوَاتِ لَصَوْتُ الْحَمِيرِ And be moderate in your pace and lower your voice; indeed, the most disagreeable of sounds is the voice of donkeys." (Sahih International)
Surah An-Nahl (16:8) Quran.com
وَالْخَيْلَ وَالْبِغَالَ وَالْحَمِيرَ لِتَرْكَبُوهَا وَزِينَةً And [He created] the horses, mules and donkeys for you to ride and [as] adornment. And He creates that which you do not know. (Sahih International)
Surah Al-Jumua (62:5) Quran.com
This is the end of the list. حِمَار was only mentioned 5 times in the Quran. مَثَلُ الَّذِينَ حُمِّلُوا التَّوْرَاةَ ثُمَّ لَمْ يَحْمِلُوهَا كَمَثَلِ الْحِمَارِ يَحْمِلُ أَسْفَارًا The example of those who were entrusted with the Torah and then did not take it on is like that of a donkey who carries volumes [of books]. Wretched is the example of the people who deny the signs of Allah. And Allah does not guide the wrongdoing people. (Sahih International)
