Please follow following process

Explanation:

Mark any point $B$ on line $l$ .
Join $AB$ .
Take a compass and with center at $B$ , draw an arc from $A$ to a point $C$ on line $l$ .
Keeping compass as it is (i.e. equal to $BA$ ), draw an arc from $C$ and $A$ , to cut each other at $D$

5, Join $AD$ . $AD$ is parallel to $l$ as $ABCD$ is a rhombus.

You can also draw using a parallelogram by choosing $BC$ different from $AB$ (keep it longer than $AB$ ). In such cases, draw an arc of radius equal to $BC$ from $A$ and a different arc of radius $AB$ from $C$ both intersecting at $D$ .
