(29:41) Surat Al-`Ankabūt (The Spider) - سورة العنكبوت

مَثَلُ الَّذِينَ اتَّخَذُوا مِن دُونِ اللَّهِ أَوْلِيَاءَ كَمَثَلِ الْعَنكَبُوتِ اتَّخَذَتْ بَيْتًا ۖ وَإِنَّ أَوْهَنَ الْبُيُوتِ لَبَيْتُ الْعَنكَبُوتِ ۖ لَوْ كَانُوا يَعْلَمُونَ ۝

[Shakir 29:41] The parable of those who take guardians besides Allah is as the parable of the spider that makes for itself a house; and most surely the frailest of the houses is the spider's house did they but know.

[Pooya/Ali Commentary 29:41]
 
Belief in falsehood is like a fragile spider's web which cannot withstand the slightest of wind. Whenever the reason behind any logical argument is brought to bear upon the false dogmas of wrong belief the whole fabric of falsehood is torn to pieces, as a spider's web is blown away by wind.

Aqa Mahdi Puya says:

To the spider, who artistically construct an intricate combination of network, his abode is like a fortress, but a slight disturbance proves that it was the flimsiest of houses. Likewise theories built upon conjecture by human minds to challenge the laws or will of Allah are more feeble than spider's web. 
 (29:41)
