مَا Not mā has (been) made jaʿala (by) Allah l-lahu of min a Bahirah baḥīratin and not walā a Saibah sāibatin and not walā a Wasilah waṣīlatin and not walā a Hami ḥāmin [And] but walākinna those who alladhīna disbelieved kafarū they invent yaftarūna against ʿalā Allah l-lahi the lie l-kadhiba and most of them wa-aktharuhum (do) not lā use reason yaʿqilūna
Allāh has not appointed [such innovations as] baḥīrah or sā’ibah or waṣīlah or ḥām. But those who disbelieve invent falsehood about Allāh, and most of them do not reason.
وَإِذَا And when wa-idhā it is said qīla to them lahum Come taʿālaw to ilā what mā has (been) revealed anzala (by) Allah l-lahu and to wa-ilā the Messenger l-rasūli they said qālū Sufficient for us ḥasbunā (is) what mā we found wajadnā upon it ʿalayhi our forefathers ābāanā Even though awalaw (that) kāna their forefathers ābāuhum (were) not lā knowing yaʿlamūna anything shayan and not walā they (were) guided yahtadūna
And when it is said to them, "Come to what Allāh has revealed and to the Messenger," they say, "Sufficient for us is that upon which we found our fathers." Even though their fathers knew nothing, nor were they guided?
