وَأَرسَلناهُ إِلىٰ مِائَةِ أَلفٍ أَو يَزيدونَ
Then, We sent him to a hundred thousand or more.
فَآمَنوا فَمَتَّعناهُم إِلىٰ حينٍ
They believed, so We gave them enjoyment for some time.
فَاستَفتِهِم أَلِرَبِّكَ البَناتُ وَلَهُمُ البَنونَ
Now ask them their opinion: “Does your Lord have daughters while they have sons?”
أَم خَلَقنَا المَلائِكَةَ إِناثًا وَهُم شاهِدونَ
Or did We create the angels as females while they were witnessing?
أَلا إِنَّهُم مِن إِفكِهِم لَيَقولونَ
They are speaking from their conjecture when they say.
وَلَدَ اللَّهُ وَإِنَّهُم لَكاذِبونَ
“God has begotten.” They are liars, definitely.
أَصطَفَى البَناتِ عَلَى البَنينَ
Does He prefer daughters over sons?
ما لَكُم كَيفَ تَحكُمونَ
What’s the matter with you? How do you judge?
أَفَلا تَذَكَّرونَ
Won’t you reflect?
أَم لَكُم سُلطانٌ مُبينٌ
Or do you have clear authority?
فَأتوا بِكِتابِكُم إِن كُنتُم صادِقينَ
Then produce your scripture, if you are truthful.
