Thanks DiogoHowever, I think it is not possible to compare OWL or OWL 
reasoning with SPARQL.What was in my mind when I asked the question is to 
compare Rule-based reasoning with SPARQL.
ThanksAbdul

 Hi

Please forgive any mistakes below.

SPARQL is a language to deal with data; OWL is meant to deal with concepts.

You may argue that both can produce the same results. However there is an
important difference: the language.

As using owl one may represent both concepts and their relations in the
same language, it allows producing new relations. I think you can't do that
on SPARQL.

Sure SPARQL may be faster and may even yield results impossible in OWL, but
it is similar to write code in any programming language.

Cheers
