al-Isrā’ (The Night Journey)
ٱلْإِسْرَاء
17:40
أَفَأَصْفَاكُمْ
رَبُّكُم
بِالْبَنِينَ
وَاتَّخَذَ
مِنَ
الْمَلَائِكَةِ
إِنَاثًا
إِنَّكُمْ
لَتَقُولُونَ
قَوْلًا
عَظِيمًا
ʾa-fa-ʾaṣfākum rabbukum bi-l-banīna wa-ttakhadha mina l-malāʾikati ʾināthan ʾinnakum la-taqūlūna qawlan ʿaẓīman
(Pagans) has your Lord given you preference over Himself by granting you sons and taking the angels as His own daughters? What you say is a monstrous utterance.
